If I'm to type Lithuanian text, I need to be able to enter these
characters:

  ąčęėįšųūž
  ĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ

There's no ogonek, dot above or macron in the Fn+Ctrl palette.

(BTW my preferred use for Fn+arrow keys would be to map them to
Home/End/PgUp/PgDn.  Tab on the on-screen toolbar is sufficient for
xterm use and I haven't missed it anywhere else, well, except for xchat.
Hm.  Fn+Enter?  Convince xchat to use the tab character entered from the
Fn+Ctrl popup for nick completion instead for inserting a literal ASCII
\t?)
