Oh, yeah..and that is one drawback.
I do some web building, myself, and the ¨ from international keyboard,
for some reason, does not function properly in html.
Aside from that, it really is most convenient for me, since I type in 4 
languages regularly.
But in programming in which you need ¨ rather frequently, it would be a 
PITA,
and if you don´t need the diacrytical marks much, why bother, eh.
