Is there a reason to expect a TTF not to work in the scenarios described?

William's Hot Beverage glyph is actually quite a good interpretation of the

There are two problems we have seen with keyboard preferences.
1. Bringing up the force-quit dialog (command-option-escape) can
sometimes disable keyboards in ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts. This can be
worked around by moving them to /Library/Keyboard Layouts. Please let
me know if this is part

Thanks. As a conclusion it seems that both Adobe's mapping of
U+03D5 and U+03C6 to glyph names and the Unicode annotation for
U+03D5 is incorrect (in case backwards compatibility is of
