Single-letter names

[JFC Morfin]

I should have been more detailed, for this answer of yours to be 
fully clear. I understand that there are two consensuses:
- ASCII issues are no part of this WG-IDNABIS Charter. I personnaly 
think they are in this specific case, but indirectly. So, it is OK with me.
- Single Unicode character names are no problem. I am OK with this too.
