Coordinating the PUA code points with CSUR (and other PUA allocation
schemes like SIL and MUFI) would be a good idea, to reduce the risk of
collision. As a reminder, though, CSUR itself is for Constructed
Scripts, so ancient Chinese characters that are actually part of the Han
script probably would not belong there.
I'm not sure how much longer we should continue to wait for Tengwar and
Cirth.
