Excellent! I applaud.
This leads to another issue in the database format, which I prefer to
discuss here first: why are they ranges in UnicodeData.txt rather than
explicit records for every character? Being explicit would avoid
generating names for the implicit records (something which is not
obvious and not well documented, IMHO).
Or, a variant, why not a DervivedUnicodeData.txt file with the
all the characters?
