Take a look at the font and enco files. Also at lang-ger.tex (look for
languagespecifics. Several things are supported. Any suggestions
welcome. Normally I tend to use \"e but direct composed characters are
also used, see enco-ibm/win for examples. (\useencoding[ibm] for
instance). In german (de) mode, "e etc is also supported. See language
specifics section in lang-ger. There is a rather advanced mechsnism for
defining your own composed stuff, see supp-lan for details. Most
recently I made pdfdocencoding accept "e and alike too. I'm still
working on this encoding (needed for sanitizing bookmarks). 

Next week I'll mail you the updated chapter on fonts and languages.
Remind me. 

Hans
