I’m unhappy that the notion of tweaking Shift_JIS is even brought up. blogs.technet.microsoft.com/… (via @vyv03354). (I’m also unhappy about the prospect of swapping the meaning of some two-byte and four-byte sequences in GB18030.) Opportunity to migrate to UTF-8 has been long.

Is this assigning unassigned codepoints, or making a breaking change (presumably one expected not to cause real-world breakage)?

Also, is there an expectation for when the new character will be assigned in @unicode and how long we'll have from that point until it's heavily in demand?
