I once tried using latin-postfix and I soon stopped, as it creates many
more artifacts that you don't want than ones you want. Having a lowcase
e for making the euro sign is just one more reason why I wouldn't use
latin-postfix.
If the agreed-upon solution is to put 'e =' on all European postfix
languages, I think that's better leaving them all as they are now.
If the only blocking issue here is inconsistency with latin-postfix,
then better use 'E =' in place of 'e =' on latin-postfix and adding the
same to all European languages. The only drawback would be for those
using latin-postfix, but after my experience using it, I don't think it
is really used in practice.
