I'd be highly surprised if you've ever seen anything with this size of a user community get told to sod off and use a PUA.

I seriously wonder why this has to be encoded into Unicode and cannot be done in a private use area. I've seen better proposals/ideas get told to sod off and use a PUA, yet this will be forced into the standard?

I am not seeing the wisdom in this one, sorry.
