Comment (by gitlost):

 There's a polyfill for the PHP Normalizer component in Symfony
 https://github.com/Zodiac1978/tl-normalizer, and also one for
 `String.prototype.normalize` at https://github.com/walling/unorm, as
 mentioned by @zodiac1978 in his tinymce ticket (now at
 https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/issues/1971).

 As a demo I forked zodiac's tl-normalizer plugin
 (https://github.com/gitlost/tl-normalizer) to incorporate the polyfills.
 This would mean that there's no restrictions now on PHP installation, or
 on browsers (such as IE9) that lack `normalize()` to normalize text on
 pasting into tinymce.
