Let's turn it into some plan for PRS+.
Drawing on the screen to find similar looking chars, while certainly possible, is highly unlikely to be implemented.

1) Keyboard + usual dictionary lookup - will certainly be implemented
2) Keyboard where multiple chars produce single one + dictionary lookup - isn't much more work to do.

Doesn't 2) also cover Chinese? Have in mind, that different lookup methods are actually different dictionaries. (by radical, by number of strokes etc)

PS
It's amazing how inefficient hieroglyphic system is, yet it is still used. Kudos to Koreans for dropping it.
