I once thought of making a proposal for dozenal digits. The problem was, while I had several sources, and could with some work find a number more, for the existence of special characters 10 and 11, I could find no case where the two different sources used similar glyphs; to unify them would probably be about the widest disparity in glyphic variation unified into one character in Unicode, and I doubted it would fly. -- Kie ekzistas vivo, ekzistas espero.
