I think you're working with Moriel Schottlender (mooeypoo) on some of this.
 I believe that there are unit-level tests for parsoid that do this sort of
thing.   (And if there are not, there probably should be).

I am more interested in testing the mechanics of VE in the browser right
now than I am in testing particular characters in particular scripts.  Is
there some broad risk we can mitigate by doing this testing all the way up
in the browser itself?
