Mockup

Writer’s “Special Character” dialog
(http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/cui/uiconfig/ui/specialcharacters.ui)
could be simpler. When you click on a character, it is added to a non-editable
string (“Characters”) at the bottom of the dialog. In order to remove undesired
characters from the string, the dialog has two buttons: “Delete” (that removes
all the characters) and “Delete Last” (that only removes the last one, and was
recently added to fix bug #63503).

In order to simplify the UI, these two buttons could be entirely removed
without unfixing the bug I referenced above. It would be better if the
“Characters” string be removed and replaced with a “Characters” text box, that
would behave exactly the same as the current string, but allowing the user to
delete undesired characters one by one, by pressing Backspace/Del in their
keyboard.
