Standardizing codepoints

I don't know what sort of situation you are describing.
I can only imagine you mean describing something like û as either u +
circumflex, or circumflexed u (ie, on glyph).
If you go here:
https://www.unicode.org/charts/
apart from going blue in the face at the absolutely mind-blowing extent
of the thing, you can isolate almost
every glyph you can imagine as a single glyph (rather than a combination
of several0.
If you are referring to surrogate pairs: forget them quickly, they are
old hat and guaranteed to give you
a permanent cluster headache.
Best, Richmond.
