<Shift> + 4 has resulted in the ¤ character on Nordic XKB keyboard layouts for quite some time. If new keyboards tend to have the € character printed on that key instead, there may be a reason to reconsider it.

However, in any case this won't be changed in Ubuntu only. I would suggest that you file an upstream bug report too.

If you do, please post the URL to the upstream bug in a comment here.

Let me add: Using <AltGr> + E is not a workaround. It's currently *the* natural way to type the € character with the keyboard layout - Finnish (Macintosh), identical with Swedish (Macintosh) btw - you are using.

(To make it a bit extra complicated: The currency of Sweden is not Euro.)
