Jean-François,
I think that we'll be able to fix this.
However, given the information I have about French keyboard layouts, it
appears that you are choosing a very strange set of keys indeed. Perhaps
instead of:
wxcmù*
You mean:
cxwmù*
Recall that the first of these characters represents dot 1, not dot 3.
Moreover, it doesn't appear to me that the key for * will generally be next
to the key for ù. The key for * appears to me to be out of reach, so we
don't currently allow its use for braille entry.
Should we allow *? It is easy to make this change.

Precisely, that's what I did. Here is what I get when I try wxcmù* (in
AZERTY) or sdf456 :
Error
You must type exactly six keys in as the "Six-Key Key Set." The keys you
type represent, in order, what you will type for Dots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
when entering braille by six-key chording.
Best regards,
J.-F.
