Request for Consensus

[James Cloos]

[I checked the archives to see whether I had missed any replies to this
and found that the original never made it.  I presume it got lost when
my laptop's drive locked up (causing a kernel panic). -JimC]

The Bépo group wants to add support for their (cross-platform) keyboard
to X and are requesting a couple of new dead keys to do so.

I'd like to know how everyone else feels about them before pushing.

The first is a dead_currency or dead_money symbol.  They compose the
various UCS currency symbols with it.  The relevant compose sequences
are listed below.  I'm leaning toward accepting this one.

The second is a dead_greek symbol.  It seems that one of:

ISO_Level5_Latch
ISO_Group_Latch

or even something like SingleCandidate might be the proper answer.

(They already use 4 levels and level3(ralt_switch).)

Does anyone have any thoughts on how best to move this forward?  

Using the name dead_currency they propose:

<dead_currency> <A> : U20B3
<dead_currency> <a> : U060B
