Now that I run the alias...

$ deus_of_keys 
°~ "@ §# &^ /& (* )( =) ?_ ß- ´=
zy ü[ Ü{ +] *}
ö; Ö: Ä" #\ 
yz ;< :> -/ _?

...the pitfall actually already would be the _ :D.
Most important usually are that pushing a German --key results in
a /-sign and pushing a German ß-key results in a --sign. Wildcards etc.
are less important than at least the slash.
