The above also applies to Finnish and Norwegian keyboards, probably to many more. The key pair '=3D' 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.)
