We still need to do quite a bit of work on the conversion--reversion

I've done a bit of this in r25081, but only by way of example, really.
(This is hard work for an Anglophone.) If everyone could take a moment
at least to add their own favorite characters, that'd give us a start.

Isn't this the information we have in the unicodesymbols file? If
lyx2lyx cannot use this file, at least we could generate some python
code from there...


lyx2lyx already uses this file. See the read_unicodesymbols function in lyx_1_5.py.

OK, well that's good news. But I'm no expert with this unicode stuff. I appeal to someone else to use this function and fix up convert_ and revert_latexcommand_index. I'm guessing we could also borrow the revert_unicode_line routine here, but we also need a conversion routine---which is in a way more pressing.
