AFAIK French people tend to write "r" and "z" thus:
    ()_          _
    /  |        / \_/
   /   |       /   /
       |          /
       |   /     /   /
        \_/     /___/
                   /\
                  /  \
                 /   /
                 \__/
while in Polish they are almost always written thus:
    _           _
   / | /\      / \_/
     |/  \_   /   /
     |           /
     |          /   /
     |         / \_/
Somehow the idea of tagging each "r" and "z" in texts in one of these
languages sounds a bad idea...
