This probably doesn't meet all your needs, but there are web services
that get you to draw an approximation of a glyph, then present you
with some possible unicode characters to match. I thought there were a
couple of these sites, but on a quick search, I only find one for
unicode glyphs: http://shapecatcher.com/ and another one for TeX
codes: http://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html
