If RSD is the official currency symbol we do need that. However,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbian_dinar does not say so, it has
'din.' in Latin and Cyrillic script, and I didn't find anything related
at http://www.nbs.yu/internet/english/35/index.html

We can not have two currencies with the same BankSymbol listed. As said,
we can add a duplicate with a different CurrencySymbol if the
legacyOnly="true" attribute is added to be able to display already
existing documents that used the old symbol, but the entry wouldn't be
listed as available number formats if a document doesn't use it. This is
on purpose. Note that in a stored document only the ISO 4217 code is
stored, taken from BankSymbol. When loading we do a match against the
symbol of the display string to determine the number format used, if it
is BankSymbol or CurrencySymbol. If there is no match with the current
definition we match against legacyOnly entries.

Having one CSD and one RSD entry at the same time is no problem.

We can add that as well if it is needed, no problem. Altogether it just
makes the list of available currency formats in the dialog quite long.
Regarding the change of replaceTo="[$Din-881A]" to replaceTo="[$RSD-881A]"
The symbol used there has to match the CurrencySymbol of the Currency
element that has the usedInCompatibleFormatCodes="true" attribute. Note
that to display the number formats in the dialog and to derive the
default currency format for a locale the symbol is exchanged with the
one from the default="true" Currency element, so it doesn't matter if
there is an old symbol listed in format codes, it just has to match the
element flagged as usedInCompatibleFormatCodes.

Yes, we do, to be able to properly load documents that used those
locales in the past. See also
