User reviews
this didn't work...
The only extension I've found that allows you to add special characters you use frequently. (Remember, clicking on it only copies it to the clipboard; you have to paste it for it to appear.)
Very useful, but could be so much better:
1. Needs Export and Import badly. Reinstalling Chrome wipes out added characters.
2. Needs ability to Reorder list.
3. Cascading menu with groups would be handy.
Extension safety
