Darwin has a very extensive roadmap which is to be commended. I would also like the Shavian alphabet supported which was a phonemic alphabet with "1 letter per sound" originally proposed by Bernard Shaw and then developed after his death by Ronald Kingsley-Read:

๐‘“๐‘น ๐‘›๐‘ณ๐‘’๐‘• ๐‘ช๐‘ฏ ๐‘ฉ ๐‘๐‘ช๐‘ฏ๐‘›,
๐‘ฉ ๐‘œ๐‘ฎ๐‘ญ๐‘•-๐‘š๐‘จ๐‘™๐‘’ ๐‘š๐‘ฆ๐‘˜๐‘ช๐‘ฏ๐‘›,
๐‘ฉ ๐‘š๐‘ค๐‘ต ๐‘•๐‘’๐‘ฒ ๐‘ ๐‘•๐‘๐‘ฎ๐‘ฆ๐‘™,
๐‘ข๐‘ฒ๐‘‘ ๐‘’๐‘ค๐‘ฌ๐‘›๐‘Ÿ ๐‘ช๐‘ฏ ๐‘ž ๐‘ข๐‘ฆ๐‘™;
๐‘ข๐‘ช๐‘‘ ๐‘ฉ ๐‘ค๐‘ฆ๐‘‘๐‘ฉ๐‘ค ๐‘”๐‘ฆ๐‘™
๐‘‘ ๐‘ฎ๐‘ฆ๐‘ฅ๐‘ง๐‘ฅ๐‘š๐‘ผ ๐‘“ ๐‘˜๐‘ฝ๐‘Ÿ-
๐‘‘ ๐‘ฎ๐‘ฆ๐‘ฅ๐‘ง๐‘ฅ๐‘š๐‘ผ ๐‘ข๐‘ฆ๐‘ž ๐‘‘๐‘ฝ๐‘Ÿ!

Four ducks on a pond,
A grass-bank beyond,
A blue sky of spring,
White clouds on the wing;
What a little thing
To remember for years-
To remember with tears!

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I've added it to #1, where I'm keeping track of extensions of Darwin to other writing systems, including both extension I'm personally interested in adding eventually, as well as requested additions.
