<Multi_key> <bar> <B> is a combination and a prefix at the same time about xcompose HOT 5 OPEN

We myght use the combination for ฿

I agree, for me it's a mystery who could need chess icons in the layout in the first place.

Since it doesn't seem like these are too popular, could we map them to something longer, like:
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <k> <i> <n> <g>

from xcompose.

There are a few prefix conflicts, most of which I'm blithely ignoring. Now that BITCOIN SIGN is coming into Unicode, we'll have to map it. I wonder, what about <Multi_key> <dollar> <B>, using <dollar> as a currency mnemonic? (Or remapping the chess stuff; that's also an option.)

from xcompose.

Oops, actually doesn't conflict at the moment. But still, <bar> <X> is generally double-struck X, conflicting with the chess usage... something to consider.
