    Um, Michael, I think Anto'nio was talking about glyphs in a
    decorative font, which should -- clearly -- just be mapped to
    ordinary Unicode characters, via an ordinary Unicode cmap.

    Or do you think that the yellow, cursive, shadow-dropped, 3-D
    letters "Getaway!" at:

    should also be represented by Private Use code positions? ;-)
