Question: How to get `&D;` into the favorites palette?

I got a solution to use D as a symbol that prints well in italic. For convienience I like to have it in my favorite palette.
When I drag `&D;` from a Maple Input line to the favorites palette, the ampersand and the statement operator are removed. Copy and paste have the same effect on the pasted selection. If  these characters are removed, `&D;` becomes the differential operator D. That's not what I want.
Is it possible at all to get `&D;` or simliar expressions using special characters within left single quotes into the favorite palette?
