    Maybe on the long term (50 or 100 years), there is still the old
    Unicode but some scripts or character groups will be found in new
    "revised" blocks with revised rules and properties, coexisting with the
    then "deprecated" old blocks which stay unchanged (thus no existing
    data will be broken). Having two encodings for a scrpit is in
    principle not more complicated than having two encodings for a single
    character, as long as appropriate equivalence and compatibility rules
    are provided.
