I have a question regarding radkfile.

The file contains several "radicals" which do not represent the real
radicals because they are not part of the JIS X 0208 kanji. There is one
group which contains the real radical as part of a kanji like 込. I
think there are 19 of them. Another group represents the real radical
merely graphically like 八 which actually should be the two strokes at
the bottom of 員 for example. How many belong to this group? Are there
other kinds of radical representations?
