I wonder why you need Cyrillic U with acute, and why you comment it
as "undefined" at all.  I know that any Cyrillic vowel may appear with
an acute accent but "the diacritic is used only in dictionaries, children's
books, resources for foreign-language learners (...)". [1]  So maybe
all vowels with an acute accent should be handled (which I think is fine)
rather than just U.
