Michael, you've seen what they are using. How will the community be served when type 
designers start creating fonts that have a cap-height glyph for 0294 supplemented by a 
modified capital P? 
 
If a band of Rumple-stiltskin Latins from Caesar's administration suddenly awoke from 
their 2000 year slumber, reviewed the situation and then pronounced, "This 'w' is not 
acceptable to us; you shall be permitted to inscribe an additional sound from your 
barbaric northern tongue using an O split in two parts, and one size is adequate," how 
excited with their decision do you think we'd be?
