Thanks for your answer.
You are right, the π is there. I think I couldn't find it because in the
default font, it looks like a box with the bottom part removed. Usually,
it is typeset more curvy.
Thanks for the hint with Ctrl+I, it works well. However, it is a hidden
feature and I think it is not accessible enough. There should be a non-
shortcut way to activate this function. Either a menu item or a button
"^-1". The easiest solution would be to add arcsin, ... to the list of
extra functions under the "f(x)" button in advanced mode (possibly in a
submenu "trigonometry").
This is the default calculator in Ubuntu, so on a fresh system, I would
like it to "just work", i. e. it should be intuitive and there should be
no need to read the documentation first. (Although this is never a bad
idea.)
Allowing arcsin to be entered manually would be nice as well. Personally
I prefer plain text input over some advanced formatting and UTF-8
characters like √ and ×. (But it seems to be done well, I can copy &
past without problems.)
