Can't you just let them go through to the backend as unicode characters and then just deal with them there? In the tex back end this is easy as you just need to define \Character{some number} to do whatever you want. Probably for the other backends the information detailing what to do with each slot is compiled into the backend, but presumably wouldn't be too hard to extend to cover the character range that you require.
