Several notes concerning keyboard operation in X Window System.
IME/Emojis
Either Ctrl+Shift+E opens the emoji selection dialog directly or Ctrl+Shift+E followed by space. The relevant application's path is /usr/libexec/ibus-ui-emojier and it is contained in package ibus in Debian.
The shortcut can be changed in "IBus Preferences", tab page "Emoji".
Any other Unicode character
By default, Ctrl+Shift+U displays an underscored "u" and expects the code point to be entered (confirmation is done by pressing Enter). For example, "2192" generates the "→" sign (see Arrows (Unicode block) in Wikipedia).
