--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Hmm, not so sure about getting in front of this.

We can't simply add to the Auto-correct pairs because no font present in LO
will support the glyph! UI for Auto-correct gets a broken "unknown glyph" in
the process.

Implementing for the Unidoce 1F12F - COPYLEFT codepoint from the Unicode 11.0
"Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement" SMP would also require that the we provide
the glyph.

IMHO this requires an early addition to our Symbol font where we should
supplement PUA mapping of ®, ©, and ™

We have PUA FOD2/F0E2 Registered and PUA F0E2/F0E3 Copyright and PUA F0D4/F0E4
Trademark, and their mapping to U+00AE, U+00A9, U+2122 which probably could be
cleaned up--not sure how the Serif/Sanserif selection out of the PUA gets done
when selecting the glyph to use.

Then include the new Unicode 11.0 1F12F codepoint for the Copyleft in both
Serif/Sanserif to match the other glyphs.
