Use case: In Dutch, the word 'één' is written in caps as 'Eén'.
However in braille it should read 'Één'.
There is a context rule to do this, which works in liblouis v2.6.3.

One issue is that Unicode has two ways of printing a capital e with an
acute accent, one is a complete glyph and another uses a combining
character:
É 0x00c9
É 0x0045 0x0301

This could potentially be a problem, but it's not the problem in our case.
