Default Putting a hat over a consonant

Note that a disadvantage to using Superscript and Subscript (in e.g.
the chemical notation at the bottom of Suzanne's article) is that
those commands actually put a different-point-size character into the
text, making their lineweights grayer than the surrounding text. Her
example made with Equation Editor shows that this effect doesn't
happen, or is much less pronounced, there.

When using Overstrike to combine characters, also, better than Sub/
Superscript is to nest the field for character position (vertical)
inside the overstrike field -- and it isn't restricted to half-point
increments, so you can control the final appearance better. (You can
also use the Character Position tab in Format | Font to adjust
vertical spacing without changing size, but again it's restricted to
half-point increments.)
