FWIW, the correct syntax is ⿰鱼丹.  I take it that he would also like ⿰魚丹.

Exactly.  *No* hanzi will be added to Unicode/ISO 10646 without solid evidence 
of actual use. Generally, this means authoritative, printed materials (a 
dictionary, government ID). Handwritten materials could conceivably be used, 
but they would have to be awfully convincing. Well-known websites with the 
character embedded *as a graphic* has been used as a past, but in those cases 
the character was quite well-known.
