You had me at "easier". :) Actually, you had already sold me on this
idea a couple of years ago on IRC. I just need to find some man power
and expertise to get it done. If only the best guy for the job hadn't
run off to become a doctor. :-)
I can send you my personal Unicode-internal fork of 21.4, if you like.
As I've remarked before, it should be relatively straightforward to
carry it over to SXEmacs. The only reason I haven't done it myself is
that you changed the indentation style, and I can't be bothered to
deal with that!
I haven't had a bug for a couple of years now, so I'm fairly confident
in it.
