When I started using computers we used octal, so I suggest new characters
for the octal digits "0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7".

BTW, octal has all the benefits claimed for hexadecimal with the advantage
that it is much simpler.

Can we please encode new characters for base-9 digits "0", "1", "2", "3",
"4", "5", "6", "7", "8"?
