The problem is not with 'LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE' being an
Adobe standard character - an AdobeGlyphList for backward compatibility
within existing Adobe fonts is available for all these standard
characters.
The problem is with all characters outside the Adobe character repertory!
And that's all additional Unicode characters! Who's to describe? For whom?
What for? Will free-style naming really do for these characters - I
wonder!
