I don't know whether you might be interested in the use of a small letter a
with an e as an accent codified within the Private Use Area, but in case you
might be interested, the web page is as follows.

I have encoded the a with an e as an accent as U+E7B4 so that both variants
may coexist in a document encoded in a plain text format and displayed with
an ordinary TrueType font.
If anyone were interested, he could do this himself and use any codepoint in the Private Use Area. Maybe it is time to include a note in the Unicode Standard to suggest that 'Private' Use Area means that one should keep it to oneself and not keep pestering other people about one's private use of it.
