I posted a module that uses Unicode SMP/Plane 1 codepoints (Wufila --
Bishop Wulfila's Gothic Bible) in the betaraw directory on crosswire.  
Front-end writers might want to get it and test their renderers.  BibleCS
required a small fix in the UnicodeRTF filter to convert from UTF-8 to
UTF-32 to UTF-16 surrogates to RTF.  This may or may not be something that
can be handled in Qt/GNOME/wx/...  Or better yet, it won't need to be
because UTF-8 was implemented correctly.

(Users-- don't bother downloading the text for use with BibleCS.  It will 
replace the current GothicA and GothicB texts when 1.5.6 is released.  
Until then, it won't work in BibleCS.)
