This is just my opinion, but I find C-x 8 extremely useful. Most
frequently I use no input method at all (I like the characters I type
to match the characters that I appear on the screen :), and
occasionally have use to cyrillic-translit, say for e-mails. However,
to insert an occasional ' into a é I use C-x 8. Is there any nice
alternative to doing this?

PS. By the way, should there be some documentation that describes C-x
8 commands, as a group [C-h k only responds to, say "C-x 8 ' a" with
the somewhat useless "á [translated from ...] runs
self-insert-command"]? Does it exist already? Where and how would I
find it? In particular, what encoding does it put the characters
into? Is it covered by unify-on-{en,de}coding machinery? How do I
find out?
