If you have a Windows key, you can assign it to be

Would this be true on a machine running Windows? My work environment
has me developing on Linux, with a Windows desktop. It's not clear to
me that any sort of xmodmap shennanigans would work. Won't Windows
itself always gobble up that key?
Programs can access the Windows key. IIRC, there is a utility that
provides compose-key functionality on Windows. I can't recall the name
right now and it's on my other PC, not this one, but I'll try to
remember to post the name tomorrow...
WinCompose was the program - https://github.com/samhocevar/wincompose
And, if you wanted a Python-y solution:
