I would like to have the 3 special cases INHERITED, COMMON and

Why? Since the current list is generated by the script from the
Scripts.txt, it's in the order of what
they are in the Scripts.txt, any particular reason they should be
listed differently? We do have the
links at the beginning already. I don't see any advantage of putting
them physically together.
Someone might find it useful to code for example
if (script < UnicodeScript.LATIN)
to easily filter the special cases.
Same might be considered for SURROGATE, PRIVATE_USE, UNASSIGNED.
I don't think Java should DEFINE and FORCE a logical order of Unicode
script names for Unicode consortium. It
would be better to Leave that to the appropriate party.
