On implementing P2071

Hello folks.
I'm currently trying to implement a conforming version of P2071.

It's somewhat...difficult, as 10646 is not the most developer friendly
source of truth.

Are implementers expected to manually comb the code charts in the pdf of
ISO 10646 to find the relevant names?

I understand the desire to refer to ISO 10646 but...could we please add a
notes along the lines of
"The names and aliases are derived from the character names in
UnicodeData.txt and the aliases classified as alternate, control or
correction of NameAliases.txt"

And if there are exceptions to that, I suppose we should find out?

Thanks,
Have a great week,
Corentin
