No, but that's what Unicode does.

The solution is to force font creators to be fucking reasonable, just like how the Cyrillic A looks exactly like the Latin A. They are the same letter. The letters L and I are totally different (in handwriting at least)

They already did that for CJK. Make characters that look the same in handwriting b have be same codepointer.
