I've given a lot of thought to transliteration and transcription at the glyph level:
Which comes back to the issue of ciphers. It would seem to me that glyph-level transliteration is the accepted behavior for ciphers (else we would actually have to address whether such things as Theban should be encoded, and Braille would have been a non-issue from the get-go). What determines whether a script is a cipher of another?
