This is something I was considering: leave all punctuation characters
and maybe also digits as well. So, in short only strip the letters
(simple and accented).

Hmmm, that should be reported to the font package. From what I see in
fontforge, a few other codepoints are missing: 1315, 1311, 12D7, etc.
