I use the menu key, to the right of right-alt, since right-alt is also known as 
Alt-Gr and it has a different function than left-alt.

left-alt-m does not print µ, while right-alt-m does print µ.

For this reason, I prefer not to lose the right-alt functionality. Menu is not 
used in Linux, I think, only in windows, so it can be used for compose.
