Thanks for the hint. Maybe I'll try again. But on the other hand, Copy-Paste from the MacOS side works, so that's a workaround I can use for some time.
Doesn't OS X have built-in, system-level keyboard remapping? If not,
or if it is insufficient, there are also third-party macro tools.

It has, as every other OS has (more or less hidden under the covers). But since this is an application-specific issue, I don't want to fiddle with global settings and possibly break something else.

The "user reachable" defines aren't for ordinary keys but for command keys (aka: speedy menu item selection).

So I Googled around for something similar for Mac and found a few. I imagine you can set a hotkey that pastes the desired character(s) into ACS.
One nice one I found was Hammerspoon:

Thanks, will keep this in mind. I'm somewhat appalled to the thought that I need an additional program to compensate for a bug in another. :-)
