I note that S02 says that the unicode classes Ps/Pe are blessed to

might be cool quotes for s/// and tr/// :).

2E00 - 2E2F Supplemental Punctuation
New Testament editorial symbols

2E02 LEFT SUBSTITUTION BRACKET
2E03 RIGHT SUBSTITUTION BRACKET
[...]
2E09 LEFT TRANSPOSITION BRACKET
2E0A RIGHT TRANSPOSITION BRACKET

But if you really want to use these characters, your source will be hard
to read without exotic fonts. You have been warned;-)
