Unicode provides encodings for SMALL CAPITALS, unfortunatly they are
scattered and saddled with unfortunate semantics.
1D00 A, LATIN LETTER SMALL CAPITAL (UPA)
0262 G, LATIN LETTER SMALL CAPITAL (IPA)
it is possible that an entire alphabet is given such code points, I have
vague memory of that in unicode-1. I only had patience to locate these two
(chosen arbitrarily). Hopefully they will force to lc, collate, and
spellcheck reasonably.
Sure I know that, I know also that it is possible to choose them
directly as I have done sometimes: it looks maybe crazy in the editor
but the pdf is fine. But since there is a function \smallCaps it should
be able to convert a normal "a" into a "1D00" -- at the moment it
converts it to a "A" which is about 40% smaller in size. (That's also
the way MSOffice, OOO and even SCribus do, but it's not acceptable)
