...  but: is this really a problem within OpenOffice?  or isn't it an operating
system issue?  on Linux, there's no such need: I type Compose ' a and get á,
Compose " U -> Ü, Compose / L -> Ł, Compose b a -> ă, Compose ' r -> ŕ...  you
name them, you learn them...  

other example?  take the small Nokia N810, it's the module of the operating
system taking care of handling keyboard input that allows the user to write
national characters.  keep the 'chr' key pressed and hit the 'a' four times to
get the fourth accent available on the 'a'... a bit clumsy, but it also works in
all programs.

IMHO it really should not be a concern of the application developer to fill in
the blanks left by the operating system...  I think this is a MSWindows issue,
not OpenOffice's.  so if you are affected by this issue, you might consider
running OpenOffice on Linux...  just a hint.  :)

(obviously the 'Compose' on my keyboard is marked 'Caps Lock'!)
