Hello everybody,

sorry if it is too naive, but is there an easy way to determine for a
given Unicode string if it can be typed from a single keboard layout or
produced by a text-to-speech system?  People who want a username because
of SSH, email and su will want to be able to input it.  On the other
range of user cases, they can use a computer for years without seeing
their username.

If we take one step back and look at the future: will usernames
still be a thing in 10 years?  If not, then a simple heuristic that
satisfies more than half of the users may be enough...

Have a nice day,

Charles
