Confirmed fix, added pictures of the fix for consistency. Thank you Mojang 😃

Vietnamese text input is still not supported. Typing the Vietnamese characters the regular way will result in an oddity where the diacritic mark appears as a separate character. I did check, manually copying in a character will work, but that's not exactly practical.

Steps to Reproduce:

1) Use Windows 10 Vietnamese Keyboard
2) Type any vowel and diacritic mark (Eg à ả ã á or ạ, ề ể ễ ế or ệ) by typing (in the standard win 10 layout) the vowel "a" then the tone mark " ̃ " to get ã. (by default ̃ is 7)

Characters will appear incorrectly, in both forced unicode and the standard font.

My (MacBook Air) keyboard is able to type those Vietnamese characters with no difficulty...

@unknown, that sounds like a separate issue. If there isn't a ticket about this yet, please create one.
