    I wanted to enter some Cyrillic characters by Unicode number or other
    methods. (I know that I could have added a Cyrillic keyboard layout
    to my regional options, but I already have eight different ones
    and I wouldn't know to how to use it.)

    I also tested with some Tamil character (U+0B80..U+0BFF
    range).

    I can input Tamil using 'hackish' fonts which map them to the
    U+0080..U+00FF range, but I cannot input true Unicode Tamil.

    Using cut+paste I can import Unicode Tamil text and the rendering is
    fine.

    Regards,
    Peter Jacobi
