Yeah, that's how I think of them. Probably because the one I use most is
the wikipedia <http://www.wikipedia.org/>

That was me. But the funny thing is... I didn't type in entities. I
copied and pasted a combining macron and a combining acute accent from
<http://zsau.firespeaker.org/Linguistics/Conlang%20Dictionary>, which
will soon also be available at
<http://cassowary.free.fr/Linguistics/Conlang_Dictionary> (also on that
website:
<http://zsau.firespeaker.org/Linguistics/Proto-Germanic%20Inflexions>
and <http://zsau.firespeaker.org/Linguistics/Proto-Germanic%20Verbs>,
