Might it make sense for someone to set up a voluntary on-line registry
of private-use character repertoires, in a defined format and with
defined naming conventions?
Although the contents of such a registry would be by definition outside
of the scope of the Unicode standard, its existence and use would be
dependent on Unicode and meaningful only in the context of Unicode,
so this would not be an implausible thing for the Unicode consortium
to manage.
Perhaps this has already been established, but if so, I have not been
able to find it on the net.
