It is much more elegant and practical than having individual keys for what can potentially be a lot of characters, but it may be beyond the current code and not really necessary so far.

Aha, that is a feature I always disable as soon as possible, since it is very annoying when typing source code. Your assumption that it is not in the current code, I can put it on my (ever growing) todo list
