I have just installed python3 on one of my machines to experiment a bit.
One of the great things about python3 is support for unicode variables,
so we can now define some diameter as ø = 3 or the standard deviation as
σ = 3.5. Now we definitely have a lot of strange symbols on different
keyboards, but I guess most people using spyder is familiar with greek
letters.
So maybe a greek toolbar would be useful in the python3 version?
And maybe we should have a shortcuts like ctrl+g to convert from latin
to greek letters like in mathcad (i.e. "s" followed by ctrl+g results in
"σ").
In the python2 version it could be disabled or just convert to "sigma".
What do you think?

A greek toolbar would have way too much buttons. I'd prefer a widget to
insert special characters, including greek ones. This should be easilly
doable as a plugin. Some characters are considered "operators" rather
than characters so these should not be included.
Convert from latin to greek with a shortcut is a great idea ! I
personally tend to avoid 1-letter variable names but I see how it could
be useful.
