Eszett variation sequence

[Michael Everson]

Can you give an example of any font which has two glyphs in it for ß?

I mean, I was in Berlin and I took this picture:

Do you think we should encode a Latin straight y (like the Cyrillic one) so we can write Seүdlitzstraſʒe?

Most modern typeface designs follow the first style and sometimes the right-hand side is quite distinct from the shape of the round S in the same font. In some cases it makes sense to distinguish the glyphic origins, because, by orthographic or graphotactic means, for instance, an _sz_ digraph is appropriate in different places than an _ss_ repeated letter.
