If we are using ligatures in our apps, this isn't a problem. If someone wants to remove PUA glyphs, great! But this has no reason to block.

Code points carry semantics. If you assign meaning to unassigned code points through fonts, you have created a portability problem. That is, the font is required to make sense out of the code points. This was a problem with Emoji until it was standardized by Unicode. It would be good to avoid doing that again. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
