Well, obviously I support this totally, since I suggested the same thing myself on this list earlier this year (see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/unicode/message/20789).
I am 100% in favor of adding hex digits to Unicode. I speak as a programmer, and as a designer of software architecture. There /is/ a need for this.
There are oceans of data out there with ABCDEF used already. What do you propose to do about that?
