right, i think the intent is to simply write it like you say it, even if it is different dialect. so the spellings won't match, but they aren't meant to. in this way they will more accurately convey what is being said.

i hear you on the unicode support, and communities online seem good. there's also an Esperanto variant of Shavian which is cool.

i may start with Shavian, and maybe do some quikscript for more artistic fun since it's also geared for writing cursive.
