Stumbled on what? Especially in a medium like e-mail, you should not 
imply the heading (the Subject line) in the body.

So are you saying that “character.jsp says that U+00E5 isUppercase”? And 
by “character.jsp” you mean 
<http://unicode.org/cldr/utility/character.jsp>? Well, when I checked
<http://unicode.org/cldr/utility/character.jsp?a=00E5>
it said:

isUppercase	false

However, now that I check again, it says

isUppercase	Yes

using different notation and different value! It also says that 
isLowercase is true (Yes).

Following the link “Yes”, pointing to
http://unicode.org/cldr/utility/list-unicodeset.jsp?a=[:isUppercase=Yes:]
shows that quite a few other letters have been incorrectly classified as 
being uppercase.

So there is surely something wrong with the information.
