AFAICT, there's a small mess around there.  Based on the names of the
pertinent characters, I think we should have this instead of the above
3 ranges:

  (#xFF00 #xFF60 cjk-misc)
  (#xFF61 #xFF9F kana)
  (#xFFA0 #xFFDF hangul)
  (#xFFE0 #xFFEF cjk-misc)

Yes, please.

Yes.

I don't know, but probably not intentional.  I think we had better
made it consistent with the UCD.

Well, "signwriting" is not a word, AFAIK, it's 2 words (and the funny
camel-case seems to agree with me).  AFAIU, they used "SignWriting"
because it's the commercial name.  But if you insist, I won't...

Thank you for doing this.

P.S. Does the script work with mawk?  (Some systems have it as their
default Awk, I think.)
