Note, though, that this also echoes 0:
:echo match("e\u0301", '\%u0301')
And this echoes -1:
:echo match("e\u0301", '[\u0301]')
It seems to me one or the other of \%uNNNN or [\uNNNN] is being 'smart'
about combining characters, and my guess is that [\u0301] only matches
at the beginning of a string because the combining acute has nothing
which with to combine.
