Frank Mittelbach introducing "inpmath":

pleased to see that project which was already implemented...
at least in French Pro along with the "keyboard" package.
Since i did that for the "mltex" option, i really appreciate
to have it available without it too.

But.. i consider there is a little typographic pb because, in
the current example, the diacritic should not be at the same
place in math (italic) and in text since fonts are very different.
This is in fact a basic TeX pb.

Doing that, what about \c and \C? or \L and \o and such?
and \oe, \OE ? The pb is a little more complicated and
should often require a new definition of that macros.

yes, as a standard-goal.
