I think this is indeed the correct expectation and I should have
recognized it instead of looking only at appearances. But do you agree
that applying (at least) quote substitution to the car of the simple
item definition is appropriate here? If so, there is still the question
of whether to use substitute-command-keys or just substitute-quotes.
I'm inclined to stick with the former but would be fine with going with
the latter.
