I could be wrong, but what you report certainly seems like a bug. I
think maybe around this part of the function:
// The last added char caused a mismatch, because
// we didn't exhaust the chars in cmd and didn't
// exceed the maximum size of the current unicmd
if (k < cmdend && cur_size > tmp.size())
tmp.resize(tmp.size() - 1);
we ought to check whether that last added char was alpha and, if so,
figure it's a command of some other sort.
Speaking of which, this could be very useful to me. I have just been
playing with the idea of making BibTeX entries like: {\O}ystein Linnebo,
appear correctly in the UI.

When I have a command I do not know about, I try (just in case) to see
whether it is a unicode symbol I know about:
// try to see whether the string is in unicodesymbols
docstring rem;
docstring s = encodings.fromLaTeXCommand(from_utf8(t.asInput()), rem);
if (!s.empty()) {
if (!rem.empty())
cerr << "When parsing " << t.cs()
<< ", result is " << to_utf8(s)
<< "+" << to_utf8(rem) << endl;
context.check_layout(os);
os << to_utf8(s);
p.skip_spaces();
skip_braces(p); // eat {}
}
This code leads to error messages like:
When parsing centering, result is -b̧+entering
When parsing line, result is �+ine
When parsing raisebox, result is �+aisebox
So the code sees '\centering' and since there is no unicode match, it
only translates the start (\c??).
How is this supposed to work? Enrico, are you reading me?
