Thanks.  But it seems this "overall prompt" should only be set for
menu keymaps, not general mode maps.

For example,

(keymap-prompt lisp-interaction-mode-map)
nil
(keymap-prompt python-mode-map)
nil
(keymap-prompt c-mode-map)
nil
(keymap-prompt emacs-lisp-mode-map)
"Emacs-Lisp"

I still see "Emacs-Lisp Mode" (it's unchanged).  Notice that Alex's
change removes the "overall prompt" from the "main" Emacs Lisp mode
keymap, but not the menu-map.
