First of all, sorry for the late response, I missed this message for
some reason...

So I'd actually have more control than just saying particular ascii
symbols would represent a particular braille translation. In other words
I can run additional code to manipulate the text further than what a
stand alone braille table could do? It probably would, although since
the latex-access project was established some time ago and is quite good
I was wanting to interface brltty with it instead of creating all my own
translations over again. I think in principle this would work pretty
well though, thanks for the suggestion. 

Cheers,
