In my opinion you are exaggerating the problem with tones. Vietnamese is a tonal language, yet it is today written with Latin letters.
The tones are solved simply with diacritical marks:

So you end with let's say 40 symbols (let's count a letter with a diacritical mark a separate symbol) and not 26 but that's all.
