This might help:

Now all you need is someone to make an extension of it or add it to kmaps.tcz

Not me... ;D

Added on my todo list.

edit: If you're only looking for the right keymap when in X, you could install Xorg. It uses different keymaps from the console/Xvesa, and includes a lot more. Seems to have a thai keymap as well.

Option      "XkbLayout" "th"

The Umlauts  ( ae = ä) and so forth Ae = Ä

Can I ad these Umlaus by myself?

The info above, left-alt and shift, is only valid in the console. In X it could be something different.

I'm not familiar with the problem, but google gives this:
http://linux.thai.net/~thep/thai-howto/thai-howto.html

Section "InputDevice"
     ...
     Option "XkbLayout" "us,th"
     Option "XkbVariant" "basic,tis"
     Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,grp_led:scroll"
     ...
  EndSection
Language switching: Alt-Shift
Level 3 shift: Right-Alt
