(I'm pulling this up from a discussion of other proposals into its
own proposal.)
Currently GAO is highly restricted: it can only be followed by a Ceo
or Vfi little word to form a Greek uppercase letter. I propose that it
be generalized to allow any (morphological) word to follow, thus making
the set of letterals unbounded. The meanings of each would be assigned
by convention.
In particular, if the proposal to eliminate q, x, w goes through, then
I propose the following letteral assignments:
q = gaokei
Q = gaoKai
w = gaovei
W = gaoVai
x = gaohei
X = gaoHai
Hebrew letter alef (used in mathematics) = gao,alef
The pause is needed to prevent misreading as "ga oa lef".
