Great news!

By the way, are you Finnish? I've never seen an 'O with tilde' character before.

Nope, Estonian. Quite close to Finnish but not quite the same. We do have all the õäöü-s that we need though.

I apparently need to map more. My head had some Mercator perversion where Finland and Estonia were a continent apart. Or maybe I don't do spheres well.

Vietnamese uses the O with tilde charcater Õ, it's fairly common.

The first word I can think of is ngõ

It's a pretty rare character indeed.
