I'm using the other variation called "English (international AltGr dead keys)". The AltGr variant allows to type international characters by just using AltGr with a key, for instance AltGr+q = Ã, while keys like ` ~ " ' still return immediately with this very character instead of waiting for the next key to compose some other character. Try it. It's much better suited if, for instance, you're coding and writing in English most of the time and if you need international characters only infrequently, IMHO.
