If someone wants to remove PUA glyphs, great! But this has no reason to block. Right, if we're embedding the font in our apps rather than installing it in the OS, then the PUA codepoints it includes aren't likely to be exposed to the world in general. Still, it'd be cleaner to eliminate them - especially if we expect this may be adopted by other authors as well. Where is the script that generates this font maintained?

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/ </blockquote> _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
