Well it may actually, since these pages provide the unicode indices
for some of the cm fonts. We already have tex symbol -> char code for
the bakoma fonts in _mathtext_data, and they have the char code ->
unicode mappings in their "Character List", so it should be trivial to
build all the forward and backwards dicts we need. Although I didn't
see any explicit reference to bakoma, they appear to be using them;
eg, compare the encodings at
http://www.dessci.com/en/support/tech/encodings/texcmrom.htm
and
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/fonts/encoding/cmr-ttf-encoding.html
Or is it just late and I've gone soft in the head?

Okay, it does help for mapping the encoding used in the CM TrueType font to Unicode. This is not the same encoding used in the TFM files which is what I was thinking of.
