Interestingly, there is a Japanese morse language that conflicts with
these allocation:

http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~a1c/CW_J.htm (SJIS encoded)

Perhaps it would be useful to have a morse language selection
indicator in UTF-Morse a'la the succesful ISO-2022-JP.

The problem could also be defered to higher level frameworks, such as
the flexible MIME framework:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-morse+japanese

This seems like a serious problem that could delay deployment of
UTF-Morse.
