1. Enable LaTeX input mode: C-\ "TeX" RETURN
2. Typing \Bbb{R} should now result in ℝ,
   but (for example) \Bbb{C} does not result in ℂ.

I miss at least ℂ (field of complex numbers), 𝔽 (generic field), 𝕂
(generic field, German), ℍ (quaternions), 𝕀 (identity map), ℚ (field of
rational numbers), ℤ (ring of integers). Others might miss a few more
that are in common use, see [1].

The attached patch adds all blackboard bold capital characters and "1"
and "2" using the codepoints from the referenced Wikipedia article.

Subject: [PATCH] Add more blackboard bold characters

This patch adds all capital blackboard bold letters and those for "1"
and "2". Most characters are in common use in mathematics, but it does
not seem useful to exclude the few not widely used.
