Compose key: How do I enable partial compositions?
I have a bunch of unicode symbols defined in .XCompose and a lot of them are sort of like this where the key sequence for some symbols is a prefix of the key sequence for another symbol:
This used to all work just fine, but after an update I can no longer type the ∃ symbol and can only type the ∄ symbol because it thinks if I press anything after E that isn't a slash that it was a mistake.
Is there a way to configure the compose key to behave like it previously did? (where ⎄E␣ would enter ∃ then a space instead of assuming the space was a mistake)

I tried adding this compose key sequence to my ~/.XCompose:
<Multi_key> <L> <L> : "Λ" U039B # GREEK CAPITAL LETTER LAMDA
I then tried to use this in a few places, but the
