Re: superscript π?

Dear David,

whilst I fully agree in the importance of Euler's equation, this alone 
would not seem to be enough. Other Greek superscripts are phonetic 
symbols which in some contexts could even be used on there own in plain 
text. What are some other situations one might use superscript π.

Regards
