Bug Description
After the interception of GNOME panel use in Ubuntu 11.04, there is no application available with a function similar to "Character Palette” GNOME panel applet: a possibility to have instantly usable sets of embeddable special chars, without necessity of time-consuming searching for them every time and switching between applications like in the Character Map.
This lack is a big problem for users utilizing frequently a wider set of chars, mostly not present on keyboards.

Found an okay work around. Install KCharSelect which allows you to enter a search item. So if you want a variation of "n" then type n and search. Don't know about other characters which aren't related to the alphabet.
