It seems all the more recent compact Apple keyboards have an Fn key with which to compose those missing editing keystrokes, but there isn't one on M0118 and its sibling(s). So, are there any secret key combinations that accomplish this (websearch didn't reveal any info...) or is it just not possible to enter, say, Delete without a software solution (Autohotkey or similar)? I suppose the answer is 'No' even though that seems rather strange.
Any help much appreciated!

You have it connected with a protocol converter to a modern host computer?
Then you could have custom mappings in the converter or on the host. Autohotkey for Windows.
Hasu's converter firmware might have support that you could enable if you program it in, compile and install.
Or, does the Clear key work like Num Lock on a PC? Then the numeric keys would have a nav cluster in Windows and Linux. Look at any PC keyboard to see what the keys do.
Classic Mac had shortcuts with the arrow keys and the Command and Option keys.

Good thinking about the numpad / numlock!! Should have come up with that idea myself but didn't as there are no secondary labels on the keys. Will give that a try tomorrow. Thanks!
