--- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
We already have our Alt+X Unicode conversion feature that covers all BMP/SMP
requirements--but it requires U+#HEXVALUE key entry, and then an <Alt>X, for
example type 'U+100<Alt>x' for Ā, or 'U+101<Alt>x' for ā

Otherwise a more general way to do this using existing the SCD 'Favorite' and
'Recent' character mechanisim would be an ability to expose the "split button"
of the 'Insert Special Character' tb button.

The "split button" shows a list of per-user curated 'Favorite Characters'
assignments and the 'Recent Characters' as picked from the charmap. IIANM
curated with the associated font.

The widget is there already in UI, just needs a tweak. That is, with the split
button exposed can already make mouse cursor character selection, but UI could
overload the split-button to provide a new means to pick with keyboard for
accelerated selection (i.e. like most IME).
