Yes. Knowing this, I suggest we keep whitespaces, punctuation, quotes and word dividers (with some small changes).
There's still something that bothers me : isn't there some special characters that you can't do with you keyboard ? Even on linux I can't type some symbols like ſ or • without copying/pasting. So, to your question "What is the advantage to typing \\aa instead of å?" I answer "I don't have any key for this".
