Keys are just integers in Emacs. There is nothing that makes any integer
special wrt to keys.
It would be feasible to define a custom type that would
display these vectors or strings of integers in a way
that is convenient when they are really key sequences.
It could be called `key-sequence'.
I don't plan to do this myself.
