Thanks for these precisions, and for the bug report !

Actually, it is not clear to me that the fact that the icon inserts the short
variant of the overline is a bug, but what could be improved is the fact that
only this variant of the accent appears on the icons. It made me completely
unaware there could be a larger variant, which was exactly the one I was
looking for.

Regards,

Pierre-Henri
