What should a museum do which is in need of a software to somehow manage Egyptian hieroglyphs?

If memory serves me right, hieroglyphs actually represent consonants (vowels are implicit), and as such, are most definitely "characters".

The only language I can think of, off the top of my head, where words have distinct signs is sign language. It is a good question whether Unicode should include such a language (difficulty of representing motion in a font aside).
