Hmm... it's possible I was confused, and the functions I mentioned are
unrelated to variation selectors.  To see if that's so, try to
configure composition-function-table to display such sequences as
composed characters, and see what happens when you use a proper font
(e.g., the one with which Gedit displays the variations).
