I like this. Good idea. But could we possibly use slashes for shapes and % signs (which have a mnemonic "o" in them for the shape of the mouth) or something along those lines (I don't care what as long as it's readable and easy to remember) instead of square brackets? Throughout the publishing industry, square brackets are used for author commentary to distinguish it from whatever quotes they are commenting upon. It would be good to keep the square brackets for this purpose.

But... I like the idea of using delimiters to distinguish between shape and sound. We need something like that so we don't have to keep specifying it in words.
