Hi Konstantin,

Thanks for the patch.

Actually, it's not so obvious.  LaTeX has it the wrong way around, as far
as I know.  See also:

   https://github.com/mathjax/MathJax/issues/353

(I read this first on Wikipedia, but I can't find the link now).

Note that M-x set-input-method RET TeX RET \phi produces φ as well.
Likewise, the org-entities correspond to what Firefox shows when exporting
to HTML.

Actually the current symbol "backslash" looks better with my fonts, but
the one you suggests is the correct one.


Beside the above concerns wrt \phi you need to include at proper changelog
in the commit message.  See

    http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#unnumbered-4

Also, if you do not have FSF copyright papers sorted out you need to add
TINYCHANGE.  See the same page.
