Sascha suggested `C-x &'; similarly there are `C-x *' or `C-x \'. Are any of these acceptable? But the replacement for M-# will effectively be a prefix and will, by some users of Calc, be used repeatedly; since `M-+' is short and a minimal change from M-#, I'm hoping that `M-+' gets the green light.
