The accepted meaning of "to propose" is not limited to the technical
sense it is used with respect to Unicode. Also, Philippe and I are both
influenced by our French locale, where "je propose" has pretty wide
semantics.

To conform with Unicode terminology, simply think "suggest", as in:
“Note that I actually suggest not just one rendering […].”

Thanks anyway for encouraging Philippe Verdy to submit the related
encodingproposal.

Best regards,
