With unicode support (especially with UCFS) I can really code more in the way I think. I never gave it much thought until I worked with D, but now that I have I feel it is a bit weird to work with epsilons and deltas on paper and "eps" and "del" or something on the screen. And what's a more descriptive variable name than the symbol used for it in the canonical representations?

So, this may be a very naive question but I wonder, since dmd is open source, is there somewhere that the list of supported symbols can be extended? (hopefully something trivial to change, like a big array literal tucked away somewhere) I'm looking through the files labeled 'lexer' and 'utf' and things like that on github currently, but nothing's jumped out at me yet.
