Here's a couple of notes: Currently Russian (ru) requires 0406 and 0456 (? and ?), but these were eliminated in Russian in 1918 in favor of 0418 and 0438 (? and ?), and don't even appear in KOI8-R. (The hypothesis that they don't appear in KOI8-R due to their similarity with Latin I and i is eliminated by their presence in KOI8-U.) I have a couple of fonts with Russian support that don't have the letter. Therefore, 0406 and 0456 should be removed from or commented out of ru.orth How necessary are the accented characters for English? I have a decent number of fonts designed to cover English but which lack the accented characters currently required (i.e., 00c0, 00c7-00cb, 00cf, 00d1, 00d4, 00d6, 00e0, 00e7-00eb, 00ef, 00f1, 00f4, 00f6). My understanding of English orthography is that they are optional. (Similarly, we don't require the oe and especially the ae ligatures, despite their use in British spellings, and ?'s presence in ISO 8859-1.)
