      The JDK will need to support surrogates in the near future to
      support CJK markets. The class java.lang.Character currently
      provides a getType method that can be used for to find Unicode
      type information for a character. However, the current API does
      not support the notion of "surrogates" as defined in the Unicode
      2.0 standard. Surrogates use two Unicode values from a specified
      range to represent one logical character. We need to extend our
      getType API to return type information for surrogate characters
      as well as normal ones. We also need to add convenience methods
      and extend the type API. Details provided on request.
