The list is mostly used when LuaTeX tries to assign unicode slot from glyph name. It would indeed make sense to have even more than a single name for every unicode slot, for example both dbar & dcroat (the first one that comes to my mind) poiting to the same unicode slot, with drcoat having priority in case that both names are present in font. No, the names are not frozen I guess. I have generated some list years ago, and I guess that Hans simply took that list to generate char-def.lua. Fixes are probably still welcome. Adding an unexisting name to an empty slot cannot break break anything, I guess. Mojca
