Is there a reason Chinese, Japanese, etc. keyboard layouts aren't
installed on Athena?  (Or at least don't seem to show up in
gnome-keyboard-properties for either Linux or Solaris machines?)  OLC
got a user who was trying to input Chinese characters into
OpenOffice.org, and while she can use the "Insert Special Character"
dialog, that is a pain for anything of a reasonable length.
