Well, I can see that it might be technically difficult, but otherwise
the ability to recognize all symbols would be more powerful.  I just
thought of it as a symbol.  The page doesn't say that certain symbols
are not listed.  Also, the classifier page listed above points to

http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/

which does give alphabetic-like symbols, see page 13 where there are
hookb, hookd, hookg, hookh and a few others.
