I haven't typeset fraktur ever, and it's been some time since I read a lot
in it, but s->F selection seems a candidate for automatic glyph selection,
at least at first blush. If it's not 100% regular, then this again calls
for a ZWMS (zero width morpheme separator).
I know we have the long s, but using it explicitly kills moving text from
Fraktur to non-Fraktur fonts.
