There are by definition no keyboard issues for a J standard -- we're
talking about rewiring an editor to accept normally typed J and
display it graphically. There would never be a need to remember what
unicode character to type -- just remember what two symbols that odd
little glyph is encoded as.

You're right about the font issues, though. Of course. They're less of
a problem than they used to be, since we can provide our own font if
we must, and "almost all" platforms can use it directly.
