But they might be needed to make use of such an identifier exported from an external library. Although you would need your own declaration; you can't use a supplied header if that header has those extended characters as text rather than \u sequences. In that case you'd probably create a more keyboard-friendly alias via a macro, but that must be defined using \u.
