Function set-transient-map allows one to use %k as a format modifier
to display the list of keys that would continue the transient, works
well almost all the time --- except when:
"," itself is a key in the transient map; at which point the message
"Repeat with %k" turns into "Repeat with ,,." if your transient binds
"," and ".".
Not sure how to avoid the somewhat weird looking doubled ","

set-transient-map already wraps the keys with quotation marks that
makes the message more readable like this: "Repeat with ‘,’, ‘.’".
But substitute-command-keys puts the face on the keys
and therefore also removes these quotation marks.
And I don't know how it's possible to customize this
to leave these quotation marks in place.

definitely a corner case. Sounds worse when spoken.
