How often do you need these special characters in your documents?
I remember the Unicode option in Word.  I like OOo's option better
than trying to remember the Unicode number.  You can see the
special letter as your font would show it.
I am working on a document that will be 20 pages of mixed English,
Spanish and German. Insert>  Special Character would take forever.

Have you tried using a "virtual keyboard"? I have used them in the past, but on Windows. The virtual keyboard is shown on the screen and you point-and-click the keyboard keys you like to type. If you have one on screen that has the non-English characters you use, it might work for you. Have you physical keyboard in English, and you virtual one in
the languages you need.

I use to use one on a system when it required an old style keyboard and I only had
a semi-working one to use.
