yup, totally agree with the point about printing Braille, we were discussing this in -accessibility, it is more of an educational item than an assistive item. We were initially discussing the packaging of a braille font with the glyphs in the A-Z positions when we found out about the unicode positions. For educational purposes teachers have printed braille signs and put stickers or blobs of glue on the dots to teach children about Braille. Educating sighted people about Braille is of value to the people who have to use it. I am a little dubious about the value of the signs at these codepoints vs a separate font with Braille at the A-Z positions though.
