That's an option. I'm still hesitant to put anything in to CONTEXT*
until we see really what will happen to those characters. So far, the
protocol punts on that with a TBD on the regexp.

Yes, but so does making a CONTEXT* mapping that we want to change
later. Any change to a character other than taking it out of
UNASSIGNED, exactly once, is an equivalent instability.

I see three sequential decisions here:
- Does anything in {Cf} need saving?
- If so, what is the full list?
- What is the context for each item in the list?
