How about getting a "taboo variation indicator", like the ideographic one
proposed in WG2 N2475
(http:://anubis.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC2/WG2/docs/n2475.pdf)?

Then one can also represent the Nazi swastika (if it were encoded) the way
it is shown on censored products (e.g., model kits, toys/games, etc.),
shorn of its arms so it looks like an "x", or replaced with the black
cross (shown on aircraft of the period).
