Tom, I disagree with you because many similar numerical conversions are
already taking place, e.g. 1/2, 1/4...

Today Unicode is ubiquitous and we use a lot more weird characters.
I just completed these less common characters.

Therefore, the problem of missing characters in unaccent.rules affects
the correct operation of the FTS mechanisms.
