The French characters œ and Œ do not appear to be on the C-x 8 map.
Please add them (for example to « C-x 8 o e » and « C-x 8 O E »).

Thanks.

Currently:
C-x 8 o => °

so at least the first mapping is not possible. There is the
alternative

C-x 8 *o => °

though, so perhaps we should remove the first one. Else something like
the following assigns them off C-x 8 O[eE]

Sorry, no: the "C-x 8 o" binding is very old, since Emacs 21 at least,
so removing it now runs the risk of breaking someone's muscle memory.

Indeed, I went back and stopped when I'd gone 17 years...

This is a good addition, but it was never committed at the time.
Perhaps we could revisit it and consider installing it on the master
branch?

I think it should go in, yes.  I don't know why it stalled.
