Right now when you add a field through the Webform integration it will strip out characters such as é or ü. These common characters should be converted to "e" or "u" when creating automatic keys based on labels.

form_builder uses the core Form-API's machine-name field. I don't think it is in the scope of this project to improve on that (at least until some more developers step up to support it). Please file or find a feature request for Drupal Core if you want this improvement (which I'd love to see) implemented.
