Otto, I'm sorry if I misrepresented you. But I fail to understand your
point. You wrote:

Well, of course if you are using languages which use only characters
from WGL4, you will use only these characters. So I could only
understand your recommendation as being to write only in languages which
are supported by WGL4, and not in other languages. And in practice that
means, use only European languages.
