Alain,
I'm glad you were able to get it to work.
The Unicode converter is completely dependent on the implementation of Java
that you have in your browser. As a matter of fact, there is no public way to
add a converter--only Sun and licencees can do it.
I can't say when Sun is planning to add those converters (you can file a
feature request for any converters at Sun's java site). There is then a lag
until they get into the browsers. So, it might be some time until you see it
on your machine.
