i have used this for years - under options (in the kbd settings) under "compose
key position" i selected "caps lock" (since i find caps utterly useless 99.9999%
of the time and have better things for it to do).. so now i can use it as a
dead key. the kbds i do have are us qwerty (thus re-use caps for this) or are
jp or kr layouts, and with jp/kr choosing the right layout works fine (the
input mode modifier keys produces the right keysym)... so as best i see - it's
al there and works.
