John,

Think of all the fun everyone will have doing wiggly-line-compare. Is line
drawing l2r, or r2l, bidi, ... There's real 1 April Gold in this. My market
research shows there is a pent-up demand for ...

	fallen totem poles (sectionally re-rendered vertically),
	linearized winter-counts (ledger-art normalized form)
	concatenated mayan glyphs (warning: digit one resembles "dot")
	...

Fortunately, these are not present in the available UCS candidates.

I admire the gall of someone who talks about the market for symbols and
drawing characters, when Asians have to write in Roman, its so ... daft.

Eric
