My original reply was about the question of ancient scripts
that used alternate glyph poses - I suggested this issue is worth thinking
about generically, not just on a proposal by proposal basis for individual
scripts. As one of the small number actively working on software for Egyptian
scripts and in contact with that user community, I have a practical interest in
appropriate plain text representations rather than a desire to debate
abstracts.
I'm not very interested personally in the application to
modern scripts, the mention of Latin mirroring in advertising was to point out
that it *may* also be an issue for anyone who is.
Your opinions below on the semantics of non-standard
typography and the purpose of advertising - as you indicated, too easy to
slip OT so I'll resist the temptation to continue debate and hope we
can agree to spare the unicode list further pain!
