RE:  Unicode Search/Replace
Personally, I would put the replace code in a function, and ensure that is
called whenever you want to process a relevant string.

And I wouldn't do it using character maps, I would generate the actual
Unicode character using codepoints-to-string(), and leave the serializer to
entitize it on output.
