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...
