Thank you all for your kind messages.

So, here is where I got:

    (define-key global-map (kbd "C-S-u") 'insert-char) ;; Thanks for that!

    $ setxkbmap us

    at: 
https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/process_keycode/process_unicode_common.c#L109#L124
    replace: `tap_code(KC_SPC);`
    with: `tap_code(KC_ENTER);`

    Compile & flash the thing;

    It works!


Problem: I need `$ setxkbmap fr`. With `fr` everything breaks again...
