Since emacs expects meta characters to be the same as a normal
characters, but with the high bit set, one could, in theory, get meta
characters with the option key already, but they likely come out
scrambled.  But by rearranging things with a new KMAP, it should be
possible.  Of course, your terminal emulator might be too smart for
it's own good, and filter out these characters, in which case you'll
need another scheme.  Or another terminal emulator.
