  I am thinking of having perhaps only two (using NFSS terminology)
"scripty" families, one less scripty, like the AMSfonts Euler script, and
one more scripty, looking like handwritten script, which would cover those
symbols mentioned above, both upper/lowe case then. These families would
then come in full (math) series (normal, bold) and shapes (upright,
slanted).
