I'm not questioning whether this works with WP7.  But a gentle warning
for all who use the entity set known as "ISO 8879:1986//ENTITIES
Diacritical Marks//EN":  This entity set is in its ISO definition
intended *only for diacritical marks as separate characters*, not
as "combining characters".  Some but not all applications incorrectly
treat them as combining characters.  Therefore, their use will make
your documents system-dependent.
