The position of the umlaut keys are also identical to the German layout. That’s probably why there’s no switch for those.
Incidentally, the German layout uses such switches for diacritics, but only those used commonly in French, bit also not all of them. ë and ï are impossible, for example, as is ç. And diacritics on consonants are also right out, because fuck the Slavs, I guess.
