What if I *want* to design an annotation-aware rendering mechanism? Suppose I read Section 13.6 and decide that, instead of just throwing the annotation characters away, I should attempt to display them directly above (and smaller than) the "normal" text, the way furigana are displayed above kanji. This would work not only for typical Japanese ruby, but also for Michael's English-or-Swedish-over-Bliss scenario. It might even be useful in assisting beleaguered Azerbaijanis, for example, by annotating Latin-script text with its Cyrillic equivalent. (Just a thought.) Would this be conformant? -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California
