The use of italic script isn't just restricted to the Latin script,
which includes base characters not supported by the mathematical sets
for variables. It isn't hard to find their sober use in Thai - I
found it in the first Thai magazine I flipped, where it was being used
for quotations and names of publication, both Thai and
English-language titles.

Doesn't help with Thai.

Works with Thai.

Works with Thai.

No change.
