17 characters from the Big5 range has the 'sheng1' pronounciation;
no doubt many more in the Unihan range.
This "internal code of Han characters" has been discussed in depth
here by Mr Zhu Bang-Fu and friends; the consensus is that there's
no way to uniquely identify one character from another depending
only on a single 'natural' index (Cang-Jie, pinyin, etc) -- you
will end up with fixed ordering ("\N{sheng1-0001}") instead, which
is not more legible than "\x{751f}".
