What makes this easier to learn? I think you could implement the same kinds of sequences by using AltGr combined with dead keys.

  So you're going to turn every key on the keyboard into a dead key? Also, the compose file can easily be customized, and some entries output multiple characters or involve non-character keys like the arrows. How is that going to work with a static keyboard layout?

    Only AltGr + [the key] would be a dead key, not the bare key itself. Perhaps a tool could be made to convert compose files into Windows keyboard layout definitions with this strategy That's a good point about non-character keys though, I don't think that could be supported with this method.

    > some entries output multiple characters Too bad that Qt broke support for that in version 5 and has never fixed it.
