Ubuntu 20 or 22 (tested on both), Qwertz keyboard layout, trying to enter different characters into a Workspace using dead keys:

^ (circumflex) + ^ (circumflex): ^ (as expected)
^ (circumflex) + Space: expected ^, got ̂ (space + U+0302 COMBINING CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT, rendered as question mark in Squeak)
´ (acute accent) + ´ ´ (acute accent): expected ´, got ' (single apostroph, depending on your editor preferences, this character might be duplicated automatically)
´ (acute accent) + Space: expected ', got ́ (space + U+0301 COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT, rendered as question mark in Squeak)
` (grave accent) + ` (grave accent): ` (as expected)
` (grave accent) + Space: expected ', got ̀ (space + U+0300 COMBINING GRAVE ACCENT, rendered as question mark in Squeak)

When typing the "mixed dead keys" (ending in Space) into a keyboard exerciser morph, an error is raised because the combining accent keycodes are not known by EventSensor class>>#virtualKeyTable.

The expected inputs are what most other applications such as the gnome desktop environment or Chromium on the same machine behave like.

I don't know enough about this domain to even say whether this should be fixed in the image or the VM. Probably other keyboard layouts are affected as well.
