hterm: no Compose key support

Project Member Reported by pgj@google.com, Oct 31 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 8530.96.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.154 Safari/537.36
Platform: 8530.96.0 (Official Build) stable-channel link

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Install SecureShell
2. Search options for anything related to configuring a compose key 

What is the expected behavior?
Hterm would support a Compose key.

What went wrong?
No Compose key support.

WebStore page: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/secure-shell/pnhechapfaindjhompbnflcldabbghjo

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.154  Channel: stable
OS Version: 8530.96.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

There is a compose key extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/composekey/iijdllfdmhbmlmnbcohgbfagfibpbgba) but it only supports US English and doesn't work with hterm.

did you try the existing alt-gr-mode option ?

Comment 3 by varz@google.com, Jan 31 2017

 Issue 447195  indicates that alt-gr-mode may behave inconsistently (at least between platforms)

Comment 4 by vapier@chromium.org, Jan 31 2017

that doesn't really answer my question.  does that option do what you want ?  if not, what exactly doesn't it do ?  if it ends up being the same as  issue 447195 , then we can dupe to that.

seems like your summary "no compose key" is incorrect when we already have the alt-gr-mode option.

sorry, i was thinking varz@ was the OP, but it's actually pgj@ who posted the bug.  so pgj@, please to check things :).

I'm using SecureShell in Window mode on a ChromeBook with "US Dvorak keyboard" and alt-gr-mode set to right-alt.  I know it does something because the left and right Alt keys now behave differently but I can't work out what it's supposed to do.  Definitely, it's not behaving like a compose key.
