Title:
[4 new] Expansion: Musical notes (U+2669–U+266C)
Status in fonts-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
In movie/TV subtitles, the characters U+266A (♪) or U+266B (♫) are
often used as shorthand to indicate that a character is singing. This
notation is equally common in subtitle files downloaded from the
Internet as well. In addition, a musical note glyph is available in
both the ATSC and DVB captioning standards for TV; depending on the
device used, it may be rendered either as U+266A or U+266B, though I
believe the official documentation for both uses the glyph form of
U+266A.
Given that the Ubuntu Font Family will be the default font used to
render subtitles in many movie players under Ubuntu, I think these
characters ought to be added to it.
