Hello,

I was requested to make brltty depend on unicode-cldr-core so as to get
the emoji pronunciations, but unicode-cldr-core is very large just for
that purpose. I guess it would make sense to split unicode-cldr-core
into unicode-cldr-{annotations,annotations-derived,bcp47,casing,
collation,dtd,main,properties,rbnf,segments,subdivisions,supplemental,
transforms,uca,validity}, so that brltty can just depend on
unicode-cldr-annotations (19MB)? Otherwise I'm afraid that actually most
other maintainers will also refrain from depending on unicode-cldr-core
simply due to its size, and the package lose its purpose of providing a
common cldr data source.
