As for Spanish, the method I use is to press `'` key and then `e` key, that 
triggers an IME shortcut to input `é`. For Polish there is a few key 
combinations to get the diacritics, but since Poland most commonly uses the US 
keyboard layout its not always IME-dependent - I like to check them regardless 
though. The combos for Polish are Right Alt + A/C/E/L/N/O/X/Z - should produce 
ą/ć/ę/ł/ń/ó/ź/ż respectively. Note that these combos work only in layout 
sometimes (ex. on Windows) called "Polish (Programmers)", There's an older 
layout "Polish (214)" that dates all the way back to the typewriter era, but 
it's now considered obsolete and almost everyone uses the former.

One more IME check I also do borrows from [this old commit replacing XIM with 
IBus](https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/1080#discussion_r1885813314) and 
refers to Chinese (Pinyin) keyboard layout, simply trying to type "ni hao" - 
without IME this produces that exact text using latin alphabet, while with 
properly working IME it gets converted to respective Chinese characters.

In case of RTA, without this change Polish diacritics worked fine, but Spanish 
ones did not and Chinese keyboard produced latin characters. This change makes 
both the Spanish shortcut and Chinese character conversion work properly.
