I'm making a WPF text-editor using
Glyphs

Kerning for diacritics does not exist in TrueType fonts, So you must define your own list of pairs for diacritics, and give the corresponding kerning. In most letters, the diacritics is centered, and in the others on the right side. Apparently Text Block does the above.
