  Yes, the glyph should (may, must, shall) be correct.
  It should (may, must, shall) not cause confusion.

  I looked a some keyboards (new and old) with Icelandic letters.
The keys B00 are marked with the broken bar in violation to the
Icelandic standard for keyboards (ÍST 125:1995) and also the (ÍST)
ISO/IEC 9995:3:1994 standard (Keyboard layout for text and office
systems - Part3).
