    Yes, I understood the issue. But I personnaly rather look at symbol
    names, not glyphs, when using unicode. Of course, who knows what people
    do with unicode...

    The only way to get out of the issue is to deprecate that symbol and
    create a brand new one with correct name _and_ glyph.

    Regards,
    Samuel
