A cross platform "deadkey" approach similar to PressAndHold is
feasible--perhaps even using the Zombie Key's algorithms, but I still have
heartburn that it is too Western European centric and that from the projects
perspective across all supported languages and scripts that features of the
Special Character dialog is the better investment of developer effort.

Hello, I am the current developer of Zombie Keys and just wanted to say feel
free to use my code for any LibreOffice extension. As a (Mozilla) XUL based
addon I cannot say how universally applicable my code would be, but the heart
of it is a key listener which is stored by a big JSON structure containing
keyboard layouts and possible shortcuts. It may be a bit of work adding support
for more (non-eastern European) languages, but it doesn't require development
or rewrite of the actual algorithms. 

If there is somebody on the LibreOffice Addons team who would like to take on
the task they can contact me for support. I won't have time to write (or even
test) it myself though, as unfortunately I am still using MS Office myself. If
you like I can attach the most relevant JS module. 

the code repository is at:
