I think you are unfortunately missing my argument. I want to give the 
users the alternative to use the left and right windows keys as meta.

The current code in Emacs does not allow the users to do that. The 
current discussion does not at all focus on this and it makes me a bit 
disappointed.

Well, since it seems like no one else than me here want to achieve this 
agree then let us settle on this then.

I still have my opinion that it is a good idea to let the users have 
that choice and I do not think there are problems technically with 
allowing it, but I understand you standpoint. It does add complexity to 
add the code needed.
