The longer I think about this, what would be needed would be something
like an abstract format. A specification of the capabilities to be
supported

I would say that a system would conform with Unicode in having yellow

Either way it's violating character identity. I'd say that being
monochromatic is now like being monospaced; it's suboptimal for a
Of course, anyone can invent a character set. The difficult bit is having a
standard way of combining custom character sets. That’s why a standard would be
useful.
And while stuff like this can, to some extent, be recognised by magic numbers,
and unique strings in headers, such things are

John,
reading this discussion, I agree with your reaductio ad absurdum of
infinitely nested HTML.
But I think you are onto something with your hypothetical example of the
subset that works in ALL textual situations.
There's clearly a use case for something like it, and I believe many
Thanks for answers.
As of ⿰言亞 versus ⿰言亜, as I don't have much knowledge about Vietnamese and
the character is from chu han instead of chu nom, I don't really know if
there are any semantic difference between the two, but at least the one
usage of ⿰言亜 shown in the word on that dictionary page

Yes, Asmus good post. But I don’t really think HTML, even a subset, is really
the right solution. I’m reminded of the design for XML itself, it is supposed
to start with a header that defines what that XML will conform to. Those
definitions contain some unique identifiers of that XML schema,

The only usage I'm aware of (with the exception of my own for historical
