Yes, it's still very useful. See for example how term/xterm.el uses both.
Or term/x-win.el. I.e. it's useful to give optional remapping corresponding
to alternative key-names.
Can you put something in the Lisp manual explaining when it is right
to use `function-key-map'? Perhaps cite and explain this example.
I think it'd even be worthwhile to extend the functionality of
function-key-map in the following ways:
- make it possible to specify a "set of keys" to remap via e.g. a predicate.
- apply function-key-map repeatedly (i.e. apply it to its output).
The second one would be natural (though it might break something), but
I think there is no natural way to do the former. Maybe we should
move read-key-sequence into Lisp, but I don't want to try to program
it thru a keymap.
