Another thing I'd like some cataloger feedback on, if any of you have the
chance.

I'm contemplating switching wholesale to using the double-cross character (with
the shortcut of alt-d). Using the dollar sign introduces a number of problems,
and isn't really much more ergonomic (especially as seen above with alternative
keyboard layouts).

Thoughts?

This will not be supported in this version of Rancor, but is planned for
development in the near future and will be added in the future.
