Hades spelling convention #150

Hi there!
Since I see mention of verified spellings in this package, perhaps a long shot here: I always find myself correcting forms of Hades in the Greek OCR-ed texts. Greek long alpha followed by iota would be ᾳ in lower case, but the conventional spelling in upper case has a tiny adscript next to the capital. Check out the number of characters in this spelling: ᾍδης (4) vs what's typically found in the Open Greek and Perseus OCR files: Ἅιδης (5). If this were a real adscript following a short alpha, the diacritics would be on the iota.. (and we would call him Haedes:-))
My morphological analyzer catches these, but it would be great to correct it at the source. Many thanks!
