It's not just that - there's a lot of other bugs with the plugin and
composer. Just check the issues list or on gis.stackexchange.

I think the plugin should display a dialog box when loading a layer warning
users that it's not supported for composer. That would avoid a lot of
frustration and wasted time for our users...
