Yes, I know it's the encoding system we are talking
about and not the fonts. Everyone missed out what I
mentioned first - that it's worth mentioning in the
handbook what letters historically existed in the
lexicon of the given script; someone down the line
side-tracked it and dragged Unicode into it, though I 
NEVER mentioned it in my original reply to Alok. This 
kind of discussion is highly unproductive and wastes
everybody's time.
