It actually works fine for me on Chrome on Linux if I change the font to almost anything but Verdana. The mobile Chrome screenshot seems to be using Roboto, so that would explain the difference.

A bug in Verdana (as it seems to affect Firefox on Linux too)?

Is it even op to the font to decide this? It seems that there's some confusion about whether it should combine with the previous or the following character.

Combining characters are defined (in Unicode, at least) to always combine with the previous base character.
