I presume there are some success stories for this process: Some
character, or even better a script or other coherent collection of
characters, is in use for some time in the PUA, and is then elevated
by ISO/UTC to an officially blessed region in Unicode. Can someone
relate such a story, or at least point to a current Unicode character/
script that followed that path?
Thanks!
