Andrew, Everybody recognizes the potential risks of getting out too far over one's skis in implementations, but this particular one seems a relatively small risk. Seldom (if ever?) has a NB objected in ballot to these small repertoire additions that have periodically been tacked on at the end of the URO range, once they have been reviewed and gone into ballot. Everybody recognizes that these 4 are needed. So for Adobe Source Han to implement early, given the lead times involved, seems like a smart move to me. It is just additional incentive for the various NB's involved in the ballot review to not mess with the code point allocations for these 4 during ballot comments. ;-)
