I checked with the routine in PariTTY most kindly provided by Gottfried to me few trajectories of interesting points on real axis from fractal picture, \( e^{-\pi/2}=I^I \).
If we look for \( h(e^{-\pi/2}) \) without I on top, it is just real number 0.4745409995126511230174679441, while iterating with I on top obviosuly leads to oscillating behaviour since first iteration leads to \( (I^I)^I=I^{-1}= -I. \)
So I am looking for (a^(a^.........(a^I)) where \( a= e^{-\pi/2}=0.2078795763507619085469556198 \)
mybase = exp(-Pi/2)
%27 = 0.2078795763507619085469556198
ffrac_init(1.0*I,mybase)
ffrac_init(1.0*I,mybase)
%28 = 1.000000000000000000000000000*I

But perhaps this corresponds to case You mentioned, that iterations with z on top of a does not converge.
