The compose data should of course be part of the compiled
keymap. (Just like the plain keymappings are.)

Yes, it should. (B.t.w. that is the case for Windows and MacOS.)
In a longer perspective, choosing an IME should automatically
select a keyboard layout. Or rather, the other way around.
Selecting a keyboard should also automatically select an IME
(compose "files" being a special (simple) case of an IME). Again,
this is *already* the case *both* in Windows and MacOS (and
some mobile phone keyboards too; these have IME functionality
("T9") also for "Latin/Cyrillic/Greek/Arabic script" languages too,
due to the small number of keys).
