If you (or anyone else) have an idea for a Q&A for the FAQ, just write it up
and submit it on http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reporting.html.

I see a great many promising Q&A's go by on this list; it would really help
to get some volunteers to clean them up a bit and submit them. (They don't
have to be formatted; just plain text in the style of any of the existing
Q&A's.)
