What a wonderful world that would be! But it's not the world we live in. Even 
Emacs misdisplays many of these characters now. And other tools that I routinely 
use (Firefox, Thunderbird, Gnome terminal) are even worse. We can't reasonably 
assume that confusable characters will be displayed nicely everywhere, not even 
five or ten years from now.
