Well, can we have both ? Once you are used to typew accents with meta, it
is much faster than compose key. Typing meta-i is two keystrokes,
compose-'-e is three, and more cumbersome to reach (compose and ' are on
the lower right of the keyboard, you have to move completely the right
hand to reach the keys.)

Anyway, I can understand that the default behavior of meta is to prefix
an <ESC>. But as soon as I *explicitely* give a new meaning to meta in
the .keytab file, shouldn't the default behavior be overriden ? It sounds
as a bug to me.
