Basic Kanji Book (Bonjinsha) support

Sorry if this already posted, the name of the book is not exactly search-friendly; "kanji" returns half the support database.

The books being used by my school are https://www.bonjinsha.com/wp/bkb (and probably the Intermediate Kanji Book at a higher level) and it'd be great to have their order supported in this app.

Their app (https://www.bonjinsha.com/wp/bkb#BK02) appears to contain the full word list.

Unfortunately I'm unable to find a freely available list of kanji for this book series. The fact that it's available in the app is not helpful, since that would require me stealing it from their app.

If their freely-available app is not considered a freely-available list of kanji, what would be acceptable?

I saw in https://ringotan.helprace.com/i238-marugoto-books that transcribing the list from a book was considered okay, which is why I assumed transcribing from the book's app would be equivalently-okay.

Would it help if I just posted the list/order of kanji here?

Yes, that would be helpful.

I count 251 characters over 22 lessons for "New Edition" Basic Kanji Book volume 1, 2nd edition (the 2020 version, per https://www.bonjinsha.com/goods/detail?id=13319, although the word list should have been unchanged since the 2015 version.)

And having typed all that out, I find now that there appears to be a complete list (although not broken down by lesson) in https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:852235/FULLTEXT01.pdf on page 37 (although I didn't completely verify the list). There's kanji lists for some other books in that paper too.

Thanks, I've added this for version 0.21
