I personally very much like the placement of special characters on my 
Dutch keyboard: http://www.datacal.com/products/dutch-layout.htm. In it, 
< and > are on the same key, like [ and ] (and in accessible places). 
Only { and } are a bit more difficult (they are AltGr-8 and AltGr-9), 
but it's not too bad (especially considering that ( and ) are Shift-8 
and Shift-9. It all fits nicely :) ). And it has nice dead keys.

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
