Both the current situation and my patch share the defect that an accent cannot be put on top of a multibyte character, such as Greek letter alpha.

With 80x25, that [almost] would not be possible either because of the 256 character limit. Of course the concern is totally valid for fbterm.

This concern is totally valid for the 80x25 console and the standard "gr" keymap:

compose '\'' 'α' to 'ά'

and the ά character is indeed present in the iso07.16 font and used in *.po files from console-tools.
