Re: [alreq] Characters from Presentation Form blocks legitimate to use in text

Yeah. These code-points, specially U+FDF2, do appear in text because of a valid reason: wanting fallback to next font with the "ligature" (sign, I would call them myself), instead of falling back to text representation.

And, when doing that, I think we actually can enlist the codepoints (the ranges) of the actual *ligature* characters, which we don't expect in text at all, and no font is necessitated to support them. This would make it clear what's *out of the loop* more easily for everyone: this spec and font developers.

And, "Currency" is a special case to talk about in general, which can cover the case for RIAL (and AFGHANI).
