While I agree that someday we will relax the RFC 7997 rules for what's 
allowed in running text, we're not going to do it one code point at a time 
and we haven't done it today.  If you suggest to the RSWG expanding the 
allowable character set as a work item, I'll support it.

> Anyway, for expediency, let’s go with <artwork.

Seems reasonable.

R's,
John
