still some accent issues with unity/nux

Confirmed here with today ppa updates

I haven't been able to reproduce this but on my system. I am using a US keyboard with English as the default language. I may need a French keyboard and a system set with French by default in order to verify.

I can reproduce this problem with a German deadkey keyboard layout.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
