That turns out not to be the case.  In the versions I tried, you could do
	consult(user).
in the main window, then select the window you want to load from, select
the clauses you want, and hit ENTER.  Those clauses having been compiled,
you select the main window again, then select END-OF-FILE from one of
the menus, and you're done.  Not as easy as meta-k-p, but not as bad as
it looked at first sight.  I would have preferred a "Compile Selection"
item in one of the menus, but it _is_ doable.
