For this research let us use U+10FFFD as the base character, and based
on
https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/UE0000.pdf
<https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/UE0000.pdf>
for this research let us define U+F7020 through to U+F707F as RESEARCH
TAG characters, such that, as examples,
U+F7020 RESEARCH TAG SPACE
U+F7021 RESEARCH TAG EXCLAMATION MARK
and
U+F707F RESEARCH CANCEL TAG
Placing the research tags in Plane 15 is so that any software written
will be more easily converted to using Plane 14 tag code points if the
research is successful and leads to a regular Unicode encoding.
The choice of the F7 range rather than the F0 range is so that the code
point for a RESEARCH TAG is more than 1 bit different from the code
point of a TAG.
