[bp-i18n-specdev] Pull Request: Allow Ruby use in non-CJKM languages

jyasskin has just submitted a new pull request for https://github.com/w3c/bp-i18n-specdev:

== Allow Ruby use in non-CJKM languages ==
Based on the range of Japanese semantics for Ruby that are described in https://github.com/w3c/ruby-t2s-req/issues/34, it doesn't make sense to say that Ruby is specifically useful for only 4 languages. If other specifications have a need within that range of semantics, they should reach for Ruby instead of inventing their own elements.

It wasn't clear to me what the difference is between a "general" glossing mechanism and the kinds of glosses that are in active use in Japanese, but if there is a distinction I'm missing, which needs to constrain uses in other specs, I'd be fine describing it here.
