Jonathon, how much more work is it to input the symbols with unicode,  
rather than tex?  one of the love-hate issues with tex is the math  
input - i.e. \pi is fast and easy to remember, whereas Ctl-Alt- 
Shift-6 is never going to catch on.  my understanding is that there  
is a brave group trying to map input method 2 to input method 1 for  
general work.  is this correct?
