.NET is NOT fully Unicode enabled...
In Encoding and Windows Forms Globalization you can read
that C# (or better the CLR) is “entirely Unicode-enabled”.
But this is not the truth. At the moment it only supports 16-bit characters (0-0xFFFF);
See “System.Char.MaxValue = 0xFFFF”
the full standard accepts more (see www.unicode.org).
It would be nice if the CLR would fully support the complete UNICODE-range.
There is also an suggestion-report about this problem:
Suggestion Details: Char.IsControl, IsDigit, IsLetter etc. should support Unicode values up to U+10FFFF
