I use unicode-2 as my "secondary" emacs, and it seems pretty stable,
more or less identical to the trunk.  The main problems I've had seem
to mostly be related to font selection, e.g., where unicode-2 will
choose a worse X font to display a character than the trunk would
have; however I presume in your case you probably will not use the X
font selection code anyway.

If the unicode-2 branch would make your job much easier, I think going
with the branch would be a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

I see no particular reason to wait; my impression is that
by-and-large, the unicode-2 branch is not going to change
dramatically.  Kenichi can give a more knowledgable answer however.
