 Is this the yellow background that one gets for accents? E.g. on a US 
keyboard, when I type Option-`, I get the tick mark with a yellow background, 
indicating I can now type an 'a' for instance to get 'à' ? Is that a good 
example, or is that different again? (Just hoping I can provide an example for 
US and other people and learn something on the way)
