		+	* 4 modules wtih Scope=Mat-Rev
		+	* 3 modules with Scope=Gen-Rev
		+	* 1 module with Scope=Gen-Mal

 Normalization is useful to ensure (e.g.) that a search index stores all words the same way. That's why for the most part, modules are expected to be in NFC form. Custom normalization is still a normalization. What's different about it is that the combining classes for each character are different from the canonical combining classes defined by the Unicode Consortium.
