Those characters seems all to work fine. I can transmit them over OSC
from Pd to Pd and display them in symbol box and I can also transmit
them between python-liblo and Pd. It looks all good to me.
Interestingly, I can also use characters and display them in a symbol
box that normally are prohibited by Pd: \ { }

Thanks a lot for this change. I'm all excited about being able to use
funny symbols for GUI designing ;-)
