In italian layout there is a related issue:

boolean equal is marked in the tooltip as CTRL+=, but is triggered by CTRL++

in our layout, equal is triggered by SHIFT+0, + has his own key.

Described issues regarding German keyboard not covered.

Missing hints in the sidepanel on access to

line function by ] (AltGr-9 on german keyboard)
boolean and by &
boolean or by | (AltGr-< on german keyboard)
nth root by Ctrl-^
cross product by Ctrl-8

Ctrl-\ should generate nth root. Does not work, \ is input on german keyboard as AltGr-ß, such that there is no chance to modify \ by Ctrl. However, Ctrl-^ does the job.
~ (AltGr-+) generates boolean equal
1. Hint in the sidepanel says Ctrl-=, which does not work (Ctrl-= would be Ctrl-Shift-0 on german keyboard)
2. This masks out the access to absolute definitions. The ~ character must be input by cut and paste from text regions or elswere outside SMath.
