In fact, the registrar will in general want to see a well-formed proposal
that is recommended by the Script Encoding Working Group which (a)
indicates that the script is in fact eligible for encoding (as a separate
script) and (b) discusses how to name the script so that the script code
can be mnemonic. So asking for a script code comes very late in the process
-- and is also basically automatic, as the registrar is looped into these
things.
