I didn't put a huge amount of thought into the registration of these
glyphs, and I'm certainly open to reviewing them.
If I understand your request correctly, for the arrowheads (as opposed to
the arrows with shafts) you want the glyph to be equally balanced either
side of Y=0. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Perhaps, if it's not too much trouble, you could cook up a little diagram
(and host it on imgur or Dropbox or similar, since you can't send
attachments to this list) that illustrates your desired registration, and
shows what benefit it has?
Thanks!
Daniel
