Adding a special characters page to Extension:WikiEditor

Hi all. I'm trying to add the functionality of clickable currency symbols in the Extension:WikiEditor toolbar to Wikivoyage. This can either be done through a new 'section' which can be expanded to show the currency symbols (preferable), or else a 'page' within the Special characters section which lists currency symbols. I've tried unsuccessfully in my local common.js here. I understand with JS you are meant to do all this fancy inspecting element and executing jQuery sort of stuff, but I'm unfortunately not skilled enough to know what to do. I previously started the discussion here, but there was a lukewarm response at best. This feature is highly sought after at Wikivoyage and we are very eager to find a solution. If anyone can give some advice or provide the code, it'd be much appreciated.
