I use that (rather than strings of digraphs) when writing Russian, or mixed Cyrillic and Latin as in my Russian-French dictionary; and I have a different one for Arabic, where there even aren't any digraphs (both of them own-coded because the keybord layouts, if any, distributed with Vim for these scripts don't suit me). It works quite well.

Oops! For Arabic there also are digraphs. But for more than two or
three consecutive letters, a keymap is much less "tedious" as you call
it.
