The above also applies to Finnish and Norwegian keyboards, probably to
many more. The key pair '=' and '-' would be a poor UI decision. In
principle one should never assume that a key is in certain place in the
keyboard; it's much better idea to be logical with _characters_. So if
a key pair much be defined for different aspects of the same
functionality, let's choose logical pairs from common characters: +- []
{} () <> zZ aA bB ... (To me all these are OK.)
