Why not just enable multiple keyboards and select the one you need? For example, I enabled the International English keyboard and can use characters such as these: áéúüó
Can I point out please what seems to have been missed, but I think James has implied? Special character entry is really an OS issue, not an application problem, and is properly addressed at that level. Yes, clearly you can work round it using OOo's auto-correct or macro facilities - but then you have to get idiosyncratic workarounds for other applications too, and end up with a right old mess.
By way of example of a better possibility, a quick check on ubuntu shows a package called 'gok' which appears to be an on-screen keyboard of programmable layout. (Not that I've tried it!) No doubt there are windows equivalents.
