RE: Plane-2-only string

I discussed this with one of my Chinese co-workers, and we came up with the following:

“𠀀𠀁𠀂𠀃𠀄
𦬣𦬤𦬥𦬦𦬧
𦩒𦩓𦩔𦩕𦩖
𨣫𨣬𨣭𨣮𨣯”

Factors in the choice of characters were:
- different radicals
- for a given radical, have a sequence of consecutive characters so people get the idea it's not a sentence but just a sequence of characters with related meanings
- radical groups increase in complexity

It's not a sentence that can be read, but there's an obvious pattern, so it's also not completely gibberish.

So the sample text would lack punctuation. Given that the Supplementary Ideographic Plane is composed of rare and historical characters from multiple sources, I suspect that the short answer to Peter's original question is: "No".
