Are we need a gothic English keyboard layout?

Ps: if you had actually read the WP page you linked:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fraktur#Fraktur_in_Unicode.de

You had found:

----------

In Unicode, Fraktur is treated as a font of the Latin alphabet, and is not encoded separately. The additional ligatures that are required for Fraktur fonts will not be encoded in Unicode.[6] Instead, Unicode proposes to deal with these ligatures using smart-font technologies such as OpenType, AAT or Graphite. There are many Fraktur fonts that do not use smart-font technologies, but use their own legacy encoding instead that is not compliant with Unicode.

There are Fraktur symbols in the Unicode blocks of mathematical alphanumeric symbols and letterlike symbols. However, these are meant to be used only in mathematics.[7] Therefore, letters such as ä, ö, ü, and ß, which are not used in mathematics, are excluded.
