I had the same tiny problem some weeks ago and this was the Nils's answer:

Possible fix: at the definition of a new unicode identifier, add a

In theory this solution should work, however I think it should be necessary
to add more information: the input method used,  the  sequence of
characters, and the information if this sequence of characters is defined or
not in the input method (because we can modify it).


All the best,
