I know of many important character sequences for my languages writing system. Should I submit a proposal to get them approved as Unicode named character sequences?
In general this is neither necessary nor desirable. There are thousands upon thousands of potentially significant sequences of Unicode characters for various languages and writing systems around the world. Software can (and should) handle such sequences appropriately, whether for sorting purposes, for rendering, or for natural language processing, and so on, based on their actual usage and significance — without depending on decisions by the UTC to formally recognize particular sequences as Unicode named character sequences. Unicode named character sequences are aimed at a much more limited task of referenceability between certain standards.
