Stock dialer not supporting country specific characters?

This is a bit hard to explain but I'll try. In short the dialer recognize the Danish special chars 'ø' and 'å' but not 'æ' when giving suggestions from contacts. Looking for a solution. Please read on.

In Denmark we use the English alfabet plus three characters - æ ø å.
'æ' is a contraction of 'ae' and should be located on the 1 key in the dialer as it is on the T9 keyboard. 'ø' is a contraction of 'oe' and on the dial pad it is placed along with 'o' on key number 6. 'å' is a contraction of 'aa' and is placed on the 1 key like 'a' is on the dial pad.

That is ASCII values 230, 248 and 229.

An example:

When I want to dial my mom, I press 667 in the dialer, and the dialer suggests 'mor' from the contacts - the Danish word for mom or mother - and with the corresponding letters in the contact highlighted.

Now the problem:

The Danish word for 'doctor' is 'læge'. If I want to have my phone suggest 'læge', I should press '5243'. However, the dialer does not recognize 'æ'. I press 5 for 'l', 1 for 'æ', 4 for 'g' and 3 for 'e'.

Now here comes the stuff that puzzles me: An ear- throat- and nose doctor (ENT) in Danish is called an 'ørelæge'. If I press 6 on the dial pad, all contacts with the number 6 in them are shown, AS WELL AS any contacts with the letters on the dial pad of number 6 - (MNO) - in them. And since 'ø' is placed on key number 6, the contact 'ørelæge' is shown with the letter 'ø' highlighted.

I don't understand why 'æ' won't get highlighted when I press 1 on the dial pad.

Any suggestions?
