That's an interesting use of "proprietary" you have there, but I

I can process the text, export it for concordance processing, whatever, and those out-of-text notations DON’T get converted to regular digits, which I need.
If you were doing it properly, the text would be stored in a suitable

concordance processing would deal with them appropriately.
No need for Unicode hacks.
