Good idea.

Presently internet tranmission is done on 8 bits and most of websites are UTF-8
encoded. So,the &keyletter; system is obsolescent.

As to me, for my oldests websites which are ISO- 8859-15  encoded, I rather use
&#number; for the Esperanto version as : 

  <h1>Teknikaj &#265;efa&#309;oj</h1>
 <br>
 <i>&#264;i tiu pa&#285;o de informoj estas certe la malplej alirebla
 de &#265;i tiu retejo. Estas necesa aran&#285;i ke kono pri la formato
 de la mesa&#285;oj elsendis per elektronika po&#349;to (....)

And when I started to use Apertium to translate directly HTML code, te default
behaviour of html defromatter was borring. May be I wrote to this list to get 
the
html-noent solution which works fine when alternative on-line translators change
nice html code by something unreadable by takig off newlines and indentation.

Your approach
- keeping html-noent option,
- addind html-ent option
- and changig html option behaviour
is the right solution.

Note : My Apertium email address stays bechapert...@free.fr
