Comment (by p_enrique):

 Here are my test results of strings using combined accents:
 {{{
 remove_accents( 'Cáo nâu lanh lẹ nhảy qua người lười biếng. Do bạch kim
 rất quý, sẽ để lắp vô xương' );
  --> string(82) "Cao nau lanh le nhay qua nguoi luoi bieng. Do bach kim
 rat quy, se de lap vo xuong"

 remove_accents( 'Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské kódy. Pójdźże, kiń tę
 chmurność w głąb flaszy! Päťtýždňové vĺčatá nervózne štekajú na môjho
 ďatľa v tŕní.' );
  --> string(140) "Prilis zlutoucky kun upel dabelske kody. Pojdzze, kin te
 chmurnosc w glab flaszy! Pattyzdnove vlcata nervozne stekaju na mojho
 datla v trni."

 remove_accents( 'Les naïfs ægithales hâtifs pondant à noël où il
 gèle sont sûrs d'être déçus en voyant leurs drôles d'œufs abîmés.'
 );
  --> string(115) "Les naifs aegithales hatifs pondant a noel ou il gele
 sont surs d'etre decus en voyant leurs droles d'oeufs abimes."

 remove_accents( 'a᷄ (a + combining macron-acute). +⃟ (plus with enclosing
 diamond). a︠e︡ (ae with a combining ligature)' );
  --> string(98) "a (a + combining macron-acute). + (plus with enclosing
 diamond). ae (ae with a combining ligature)"
 }}}
