    <thetext>Version:           4.3.2 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

When I activate the exposé plugin (that which resize all windows and show all them side-by-side), and try to filter the windows by typing, the filter doesn&apos;t accept multi-key chars.

I use the brazilian keyboard, so to type the char &quot;ã&quot;, I type &quot;~&quot; and then &quot;a&quot;. The normal behavior is it transforms that in &quot;ã&quot;, but the kwin filter understands &quot;~a&quot;. So, if I have a window named &quot;malhação&quot;, I can&apos;t type &quot;malhação&quot;, but &quot;malhaç~ao&quot;, making the filter doesn&apos;t work correctly.

The same occours with all the other multi-key chars (á, é, í, ó ã, etc.) 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Activate the plugin. If you haven&apos;t changed the key shortcut, it&apos;s &quot;Ctrl+F9&quot;. If you have some windows which has a latin char in title, try to type this char.

Actual Results:  
if you type ~ and then a, the filter captures &quot;~a&quot;

Expected Results:  
the filter must capture &quot;ã&quot;</thetext>
