My two cents are both about adding characters in the <Pattern_Syntax> of "4.1 Proposed Pattern Properties".
IMHO:
1. Full-width, half-width, and "small" punctuation characters should in class <Pattern_Syntax> as their "normal width" counterparts.
2. Non-Latin punctuation character should be in class <Pattern_Syntax> as their Latin counterparts.
...
Should any of the above character be added to <Pattern_Syntax> (i.e. *not* allowed in identifiers)?

as this is similar in appearance, at least in many Hebrew fonts, and function to a colon. Also if the ordinary Latin hyphen, quotation mark, vertical line etc are included, so should be
05BE HEBREW PUNCTUATION MAQAF 05C0 HEBREW PUNCTUATION PASEQ 05F3 HEBREW PUNCTUATION GERESH 05F4 HEBREW PUNCTUATION GERSHAYIM
and equivalents in Armenian, Syriac etc etc. Indeed why not include everything with punctuation properties? According to tr31 "some script-specific characters were removed". Why? What remains is also script-specific, but just for Latin script.
