--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
The Special Character "Symbol" dialog was reworked for the 2017 GSOC. 

Rework included adjustment to the old dialog of .uno:InsertSymbol and a new
.uno:CharmapControl dialog holding Favorites and Recent in the "small special
character box" you describe. 

In UX review, the Favorites/Recent button dropdown button was deemed by UX &
Design team not to be a viable replacement for the full function dialog and was
replaced with the button control for the full dialog [1]. 

Both controls are assigned buttons on the Standard toolbar, but the new
uno:CharmapCotnrol is not going to be shown on standard toolbar with default
profile. Users can add it. 

And, likely additional work will see the two button actions merged into a split
button.
