Also -- because I just found this out -- the built-in soft keyboard is
international, at least for common European languages.

For example, to do the ö (as in Malmö, a city in Sweden), long-tap the o
key on the soft keyboard, and you'll get a small pop-up with o's with
various diacriticals (umlaut, accent, tilde, etc.).

The letters offering such variants have an ellipsis showing in the
lower-right corner of the, um, Scrabble tile preview thingy that appears
when you tap the key.

It may be the LatinIME keyboard also makes intelligent choices based
upon locale, though I haven't tried that.

That at least covers *some* of your bases, though.
