    If these symbols are indeed used in a single book and by a single
    author, I would put them in the PUA, I don't see any interchange
    requirement to do otherwise. If letters unique to an author may now be
    encoded in Unicode, I have many to propose to the enabling technology
    that Unicode is and people will be free to use them or not.
