I'll set up quail-define-rules to run with the append argument for each
method.  Something like

(dolist (method '(cyrillic-translit cyrillic-yawerty ...))
  (... switch to Quail method ...)
  (quail-define-rules (append . t) (... characters ...)))

Does anyone know how to list all the Quail methods matching a regex, and
how to switch to a Quail package?  All the examples use
quail-define-package to switch to the package and I hope I don't have to
dig into the macros to figure out how to switch to an already-defined
package.

I'll abstract the common elements so they are not entered multiple times
and find which elements are not covered by which methods once I get the
above working.

Thanks
Ted
