I think that in the age of unicode "$(name:he)" will always be the same, regardless of the font you use, as long as you stick to unicode. I believe that this site uses utf-8 which is a unicode encoding. Therefore, "$(name:he)" will always be a dollar sign and parenthesis around some Latin letters. > A possibility would be to never use name=, but only name:XX=xxxx and > have a tag name:local=XX in order to indicate which is the local one. > For rendering, a default rule could be that if there is only one > name:XX=xxx without name:local=... then it will use the name:XX whatever > XX is. I like this idea!
