Actuially, of the four I listed there, only the Edgehog is a big challenge in XBetza. The null move is mpabK, the Rose is qN, and the Quintessence is zN. For just about anyone (myself included) the XBetza is actually much easier to type than the special character, unless I'm doing something weird with it like turning it into a rifle capture. (A "Rifle Rose" may be as simple as qcaibN -- I honestly don't know, or have time to check it out right now -- but I'd prefer caibÞ.) And anyway, those are just off-the-cuff examples.
I'm curious, though: Why not use the thorn (Þ) for the Rose?
