Actually, C-x is already bound in function-key-map in the dumped
Emacs because of the `C-x @ m', `C-x @ a', ... feature.
The change in the code is pretty simple and feels right, so I might
install it when I've tested it some more, but it doesn't solve the
problem at hand.
It seems there's a fundamental incompatibility here.
On the one hand key-translation-map needs to be applied as soon as C-x
is pressed and on the other, it should not be applied if the user hits
C-x @ m.
Anybody has a good idea how to reconcile those two constraints ?
Why did cua use key-translation-map rather than a minor-mode keymap ?
Stefan
