The function $f: A → B$, $g\colon A → B$.
we could add a mathsymbol entry but I leave that to Aditya to decide
{
 adobename="colon",
 category="po",
 cjkwd="na",
 description="COLON",
 direction="cs",
 linebreak="is",
 mathclass="relation",
--mathsymbol=0x2236,
 unicodeslot=0x3A,
},
Should it be 'mathclass=“relation”’? Mathematically, relations have extra space at both sides, whereas in the function $f: A → B$, there should not be much space before the “:”.
that's where the domain would kick in .. it can control that kind of spacing issues
OK. The word “relation” makes me think of math relations. :-)
