Klingon was rejected because it is a made-up script/language.
Tengwar is unlikely to be accepted for the same reason.

That said, Tengwar has been singled out by some as a great script to
use as the basis for a document describing how to properly support
complex scripts.  (It is probably about as complex to render as
arabic, urdu, etc.  At least based on recent comments on the
unicode list.)
