However, only a very tiny modification would be necessary for what you desire. Currently we use Basic Language Ranges for Prefix. Changing to Extended Language Range would do what you want:Type: variant Subtag: polyton Prefix: *-Grek Comments: This variant can also be applied to languages with a Suppress-Script of 'Grek'
Big -1. Introducing this kind of wildcard syntax into the Registry would be a highly effective way of reducing the number of conformant implementations.
If we relax the prefix check on variants, this works functionally too.
