Are we need a gothic English keyboard layout?

 Officially it is called «Bold fraktur letters», position in Unicode
U1D56C-U1D59F (𝕴𝖋 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖉𝖔𝖓'𝖙 𝖘𝖊𝖊 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖕𝖍𝖗𝖆𝖘𝖊 𝖎𝖓 𝖙𝖍𝖊
𝖇𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖊𝖘 𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖓 𝖞𝖔𝖚'𝖗𝖊 𝖘𝖈𝖗𝖊𝖜𝖊𝖉 — 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖘 𝖑𝖊𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖘
𝖎𝖓 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖓𝖉𝖆𝖗𝖙 𝖘𝖎𝖓𝖈𝖊 2001 𝖞𝖊𝖆𝖗). Right now I made it
up from one of an unused by me layouts of the «/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/»
directory. But I think I could dig into it, and make a full keyboard layout
if there is a chance that you're accept it.
 So, the question is: are you need this layout? Personally I think that it
looks very beautiful, and since all over the internet using the Unicode, no
would be a problems with a symbols encoding. I think we need it.

 P.S. There is also non-bold characters which probably would be more
comfortable for a layout, but alas, if the Wikipedia is right
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_operators_and_symbols_in_Unicode
some characters there is missing by the standart, so we have only the bold
alphabet.
