Could be a bug in the XKB code inside Qt. I tried to look into it, but .... 
how do you actually get a meta key in the first place?

I tried rebinding the Windows key to Meta in xmodmap [*], and it works in 
`xev`, but the keyval in Qt is Qt::Key_Multi_key which activates compose 
sequences in this file: 
qtbase/src/plugins/platforminputcontexts/compose/qcomposeplatforminputcontext.cpp
Looks like this code works on keycodes, not keysyms, so it basically ignores 
my xmodmap configuration.

[*] keycode 133 = Meta_L Meta_L Meta_L Meta_L
