The barrier is input, not display. I have a keyboard driver for Windows that allows you to type about 1000 characters[1], but most people don't. I would say these are the only brackets that are easy for anyone to type, and even then they don't work for people using the U.S. keyboard and standard drivers. (On X, there is a compose key, but only a few people are using Linux on their desktops.)
