Everything's a non-starter. Until it begins.
Is this a casing orthography? (Please see attached image.)
We've seen where typewriter kludges enabled users to represent the
glottal stop with a question mark (or a digit seven). Unicode makes
those kludges unnecessary.
But we're still using typewriter kludges to represent stress in Latin
script because there is no Unicode plain text solution.
