Unicoders, in my extensive site on Greek Unicode issues, I discuss the representation of the old letter for /h/ in Greek inscriptions, at http://www.tlg.uci.edu/~opoudjis/unicode/unicode_aitch.html . As I say there, this is usually represented with a Latin h, as opposed to the breathing mark, but there is a minor tradition of representing it with a tack symbol, which is cased. The casing alone to my mind means that there are grounds for a heta lowercase and uppercase to be proposed, with its reference glyph as the tack but with a glyph variant as the Latin h; but I don't know how extensively the tack heta is in use. Could people have a look at the page and comment?
