Following up on Drew's "What's a command and its purported replacement",
are "keymap-set" and "keymap-global-set" supposed to accept the declarations
where command is actually a keymap like so

(keymap-set "C-;" "C-x C-;")
(keymap-global-set "C-;" "C-x C-;")

Which is intended to add the keymap "C-;" as an equivalence to "C-x C-;",'and
thusly having "C-;" as an alternative keymap to using "C-x C-;".
