Accents are not displayed properly

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open marave
2. Write something with an accent like "Hola, cómo te va?"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The accent should appear on top of the vocal, insteads appears as a 
different character. The same happens with umlaut (ü).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Marave 0.4.1 - Ubuntu Karmic Koala

Hehe, I meant "vowel" instead of "vocal" :)

Verified. It happens with gtk+ style but not with oxygen, so it seems to fail 
if the 
editor is a QGraphicsWidget instead of a regular QWidget. I knew that would 
break 
stuff :-)

This looks like this  Qtbug:

method=entry&id=219928

But... I can't reproduce it in C++ anymore. I need to write some test cases.

Can't reproduce it in a simple PyQt script either, so it seems I must be doing 
something weird.

Ok, we probably don't have the exact same keymap

Sure, it is fixed, I say. I just had to comment a line!

To figure out that was the problem, I had to do the freaking HAL 9000 treatment!

I nullified every method of mainwidget, then commented 95% of the lines in 
mainwidget.__init__ and then when I commented that completely non-threatening 
line... it worked.

Debugging with a magical axe, I call it.
