I've just comitted the code to do that.  I tested with the
Arial font and it seems that the most of points you listed
are solved now except for this:

5. This is not Hebrew, but the combining dot above should be composed
with the letter A.

It seems that Arial font doesn't have a glyph of #x307.

When you set both the default font and the font for #x307 to
"dejavu sans mono", #x307 is composed with the preceding
"A".
