Not "One Emacs to rule them all!"?

This isn't good news:
<quote>
The compose key is known as "Multi_key" in the X Window System. In XFree86 and 
X.Org Server, many keyboard layouts have a variant that maps Multi_key to some 
key, usually (on PC keyboards) to either of the Windows keys (most often the 
Menu key, since "Start" is already used to open the start menu), or sometimes 
Shift + AltGr[1] or Shift + Right-Ctrl. It can also be specified in XkbOptions 
(for example, "compose:rwin"). Multi_key can also be assigned with the 
xmodmap(1) utility

In short:
Everyone is doing it differently.
