I think you should not remove direction characters as they make it impossible to literally encode bidirectional strings, which is important for internationalization. It is true that BIDI control characters...

I will say having dotless lowercase I as a character variant of `U+0069` is important, and recommended Unicode practice, for languages like Irish which will use dotless I as a...
