The characters _are_ supported, and we do assign names to them (which are trivially derived from their codepoints), so typing their names is just an unnecessarily complicated way of typing their codepoint. IOW, why not just type 8072 at "C-x 8 RET"s prompt, instead of selecting "CJK IDEOGRAPH-8072" from a list of 27,000 candidates?
I do use 8072 at the "C-x 8 RET" prompt. The problem is it says: ''' Insert character (Unicode name or hex): 8072 [No matches] '''And, I have to blindly hit RET at that point to insert the U+8072 sign.
What I expect to see is: ''' Insert character (Unicode name or hex): 8072 聲 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH 8072 '''And, I can then either hit RET at the end of 8072 or use the down arrow key to choose that line underneath.
