Standard Serbian keyboard layout doesn't even have "[]{}" characters. Do we fix this only for layouts that can produce '[' and ']' with some combination of key presses?

(In reply to comment #3) > Standard Serbian keyboard layout doesn't even have "[]{}" characters. Do we fix > this only for layouts that can produce '[' and ']' with some combination of key > presses? If that's the case, isn't it a gmail issue that '[' and ']' are not good choice for some KBD layouts? You have to file a bug ('feature request') against gmail, don't you? This bug is about '[' and ']' not working in gmail + Webkit-on-Windows on KBD layouts where it IS possible to type them (and it works with Firefox and Opera + gmail).
