Never mind this post. The problem seems to be connected with fullscreen 
mode, my normal mode of operation. When I tested this I disabled it and 
then it worked. Whenever I don't use fullscreen mode I have no problem 
with accents with or without the patch below. However there must be 
something that konsole does that makes this fail because when I try 
calling showFullscreen in another application the keyboard still works. 
Still, at least now I can use the app.
