There is no "Compose" key on the keyboard I'm using to type this.

Remember, you can assign your own keys on *nix GUIs.

I use Caps Lock for this purpose.

People who use non-English languages typically have keyboards with
accented letters and so forth.

As I have mentioned before, the idea that only “non-English languages”
needs such symbols demonstrates a certain ... naïveté.
