Maybe, but then you open up the Pandora's box of non-ASCII characters. Once you do that, are all sorts of things that have better alternatives, even just within Latin-1: [þ] for [T], [ð] for [D], [ø] for [2], [æ] for [&] - of course, if we have [æ], folks will wonder why we don't have the o-e ligature for [9] (answer: it's not in Latin-1) . . . -Marcos
