I have no problem assigning a shortcut to "Insert.Special Character". 
Open a Writer document and go to Tools.Configure, tabpage "Keyboard". There I

I suppose I've bad explain the issue.
I was speaking about a character himself and not about the function "insert

e.g : I'm user of the U+25CF character and of the U+2013 character.
I would like to be able to allow a ctrl+shift+. and ctrl+shift+- to those 
characters to write faster.
I could be very usefull if for european people writing in foreign languages.

I am missing such a feature too. I need it for mathematical operators, when
