My problem with hamza is not so much *typing* it, as figuring out what it is. The one in Qur'an gets written to look like both a 'c' and a reversed 'c' in different places, but these (as I understand things) are really 2 different characters. The glyphs in Characer Viewer are so numerous and variable that they leave this Arabic-illiterate baffled. I don't wan't to use a single quote, because I find it necessary to switch between 'Educate Quotes' and 'Straighten Quotes' when using Find&Replace to insert unicode gobbledogook. What *is* that thing in Qur'an? It is often written differently from the one in 'Umar. Surely somebody on this list knows about these arcane matters!
