Isn't it a bad idea to modify global files?

I see that the file is for unicode symbols only.
So this cannot be used for something which is
outside unicode table, can it?

There are such things?

Anyway, I'm not expert on any of this. I don't know e.g. how one might be
able to get LyX to recognize customized glyphs such as in this package:
    http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/fge/
But there are LyX folks who do know a lot more about this, and maybe it is
worth a post on lyx-devel, with a very specific question.
