I have a perl script here that I used to generate downgrading table for a C program. I can let you have the perl script as is, but if there's enough interest(*) I'll use it to generate, say, CompoundAsciiFilter since it converts compound characters like á, æ, ffi (ffi-ligature, in case it doesn't display) to a, ae and ffi. It's actually built from http://www.unicode.org/Public/4.1.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt so it winds up having nearly 1200 entries. An earlier version converted all compound characters to their constient parts, but this version just converts characters that are made up entirely of ASCII and modifiers.
I would love to see this. I presently have a somewhat unwieldy conversion table [1] that I would love to get ride of :))
