Thanks, a lot of these make sense; there are a few conflicts with existing sequences, though, so I will cherry-pick!

<Multi_key> : "†" U2020 # DAGGER <Multi_key> : "¦" U00A6 #BROKEN BAR

Currently, a lot of combinations allow a user to type in any order and get the same result (e.g, a + " == " + a). Remembering the order of keys makes it harder to use. I wouldn't introduce such combinations by default. Broken bar can be <bar> <space> :)
