I have to agree with Nadim here, it seems like accepting characters is not
about what's good and what's bad, I already responded reasonably to all
counter-arguments and backed them up with sample from the Qur'an and
all.
If so, why did they accept the character:
ARABIC LETTER REH WITH HAMZA ABOVE
on 2004-Feb-04?
Keep in mind that this one doesn't need anything special (a Reh + Hamza
would certainly return the new accepted character without any problems or
logic codes or any other complications)
Yet, the much harder to get character of sequential tanween for example
cannot be accepted.
I have only one interpretation for this in my mind actually.
