Subject: SF unicode test


[...btw, attachment is a ZIP file, renamed for Boeing convenience...]

All --

We have 5 nice unicode tests for graphical text.  We agreed that we need 
non-graphical, linking test(2).  Attached is something that Dieter sent me 
a while ago.  It is an elegant test, that...

1.) has utf16 japanese characters in the apsid of an object, and tests a 
link to it with a fragment containing that apsid
2.) has utf16 japanese characters in the 'name' ApsAttr of an object, and 
tests a link to it with a fragment containing that 'name'

#1 is tested in the top row -- the target object is in the left box and the 
object bearing the link to it is in the right box.  Similarly for #2 in the 
bottom row.

I like that the test explains itself within the picture, but I'm wondering 
if it's too complex?  It is somewhat complicating that the target objects 
are themselves *graphical* utf16 japanese text, and the anchor objects of 
the links are similar -- elegant, but might complicate the easy diagnosis 
of cause of failure, if a viewer fails the test.

As we discussed last week, it might be better if the test involved less (or 
none) graphical unicode text, so that pass-fail would purely be a 
consequence of the non-graphical unicode linking ability.  (However, that 
would make it a little harder to nicely self-explain, because you wouldn't 
be able to have those characters as renderable unicode text in the 
explanatory parts of the picture.)

Thoughts?
