[This will be considered for v2.20 if there is time.]

Many new growing delimiters were added in v2.0.1, but some were were postponed until later. (For some, it might be unclear how to make them stretchy.)

The following characters are also considered delimiters in the LaTeX unicode-math package, but it's not clear how we should treat them:

Code Glyph Unicode Name
U+231C TOP LEFT CORNER
U+231D TOP RIGHT CORNER
U+231E BOTTOM LEFT CORNER
U+231F BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER

I’ve spec’d variant height s1–s12 glyphs for the complete first set listed above. Will consider which of them might also be supported with assemblies.

I am unsure whether the corner pieces need growing forms—which might consist of the same shape at different heights corresponding to the other delimiters, or if a math handler should be able to position the individual corner pieces relative to the whole height of an equation or portion of an equation?
