Would it be possible to have wordprocessing software where one uses CONTROL APOSTROPHE for U+2019 and CONTROL SHIFT APOSTROPHE for U+02BC for input and could there be a "show in colour mode" where U+2019 is displayed in cyan and U+02BC is displayed in red, while everything else is displayed in black?
That is, CONTROL U+0027 and CONTROL SHIFT U+0027 respectively.
If people want this facility, maybe it could become published in a Unicode Technical Report so that standardization and interoperability could be achieved.
