Unfortunately, this isn't true: many national keyboards in Europe don't
have keys for some of those ( {, |, and } seem to be most prone to
this). You need to press some AltGr-key combination to get them. IIRC,
\ and _ have some issues on Japanese keyboards.
I remember that someone told me SIGQUIT was a pain in some European
country (Germany?) because you need a combination of keys to produce \.
