  I wish NONE of precomposed Hangul syllables were ever present in Unicode
so that we can _uniformly_ use U+1100 Jamos to represent Hangul (obsolete,
modern, future) whatever normalization form we have to use. Of course,
this is a dream that became all but impossible to realize _partly_
because of 'not-so-insightful' Korean national standard body that
came up with KS C 5601-1987(or whatever standard that represents
Hangul syllables precomposed) and that pushed for inclusion of
11,172 syllables in precomposed form. In addition, due to its another
not-so-insightful decision, whatever NF we use, we still are left with
multiple representation of Hangul syllables as Kent noted.
