I've struggled with that, too. On MicroEmacs, I fixed ^X-U to scroll through the 
various incarnations of a letter. So, placing the cursor on a, and hitting ^X-U, 
changes it to a with an umlaut, a with an accent, etc. On a -, it scrolls 
through the various - variations. On ", it scrolls through the quoting symbols.

Of course, this is pretty limited.
