@Raphael: Of course we want a consistent behavior in all applications.
Since you mention pt_PT, it should be noted that the commit I just made
affects pt_BR only. Possibly there is a reason to do the same for pt_PT,
but I think it needs to be discussed first. Added a libX11 task to
remember it.

That makes sense for existing users, but wouldn't a better configuration
be preferable for new users who install e.g. 14.04?

Bug description:
When typing in a US-international keyboard with dead-keys (or
UK-international),
typing 'c results in an accented c instead of a cedilla.
There is a workaround, which is editing the
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.immodules
file and changing the line
"cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale"
"az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa"
to
"cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale"
"az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa:en"
(add the 'en' at the end).
However, every time some update on this file is applied, one looses the
change,
and we get back to the accented c. That means having to modify the file again,
logout and login.
For me this is no problem. But for my brother, mom, dad, etc, it is always
something
that at least makes me less proud of having convinced them to use Ubuntu,
because
they don't know what to do each time this happens.
I think we really need a configurable keyboard layout, or at least (and that
would
be very easy), the inclusion of alternate layouts on install that for the
dead-key
options (as US-deadkey and UK-deakey), alternate layouts as
US-deadkey-cedilla.
This change is relevant for at least Portuguese and French.
