Well, one question that it would be nice to be able to ask Emacs is "show me all the characters that resemble CH", so that users could decide what to add to the existing set. Another potential issue is how does one easily delete a character from the list, when what is known is its name or codepoint? Using Isearch with \N{...} or "C-x 8 RET" is quite advanced.
