I think that is something Humanware can fix, though. As I see it, keysoft is intercepting everything before passing it onto the iPhone, which is how you can hit space-e to close terminal or, in your case, hit an 8 dot character and have keysoft get it first. Since it works when 8 dot is disabled on the apex but not when it is enabled, I have to blame hw fully and say that apple is not at fault here. I have emailed hw about this and have so far not heard that it is anything apple-related, so I am sticking with my assumption for the moment.
