forget about the past, think about what kind of functionality you want
for instance,
"we need a language dependent feature that remaps characters"
so, what are the specs; maybe other languages need similar things

OK, acknowledged. However, this is a special case because: - it is not a language feature, it is just something for a special sort of ancient Greek texts (the subdot accent doesn't exist in Greek); - the character is available in just a few fonts, so my idea was to really write a macro which will specifically fetch the glyph from a specific font. So for the time being, the specs are (for my module) ~ => inactive (already done in the module) | => inactive (already done in the module) ! => active, map to Unicode character 0323 in a font that has this character Thanks Hans!
