Windows most everywhere:

Hold ALT while typing the Extended ASCII number for a character on the numpad (not the row of numbers above the letters) results in that char.

For é: Hold Alt while typing 130 on numpad.

TIL, apparently this can be extended to unicode too.

Yes, but learning numbers isn't realy comparable to be able to just guess the compose buttons. o¨ makes ö, ao makes å. If you want the copyright sign you type o+c.

True. Different compromises on capability vs usability.
