Badly discoverable? Sure. You can vastly improve the remembering part by picking appropriate mnemonics. The Plan 9 keyboard file is a nice start, I think.

It follows a set of rules so you don't have to remember a large number of sequences but can often guess the right one intuitively.

    ASCII digraphs for mathematical operators give the corresponding operator, e.g., <= yields ≤.
    Greek letters are given by an asterisk followed by a corresponding latin letter, e.g., *d yields δ.

There's a program (mklatinkbd) to convert it to a format usable with X11.
