This can't be a general solution since there are other keymaps
where repeating lambda is required.

For example, other-window-repeat-map currently has no keybinding
that could switch to navigating windows in the opposite direction.
There were proposals to bind it to "O", but since there is no such
command as "previous-window" to cycle windows backwards,
using a lambda is required, but currently this doesn't work:

  (define-key other-window-repeat-map "O"
    (lambda ()
      (interactive)
      (other-window -1)))

Stefan already asked about this, but I had no idea
how it could be improved.  Now I tried to set
the KEEP-PRED arg of set-transient-map to t, and
it seems both lambdas above can be used with this change:

diff --git a/lisp/repeat.el b/lisp/repeat.el
index 84a613da0c..4be4f766ef 100644
--- a/lisp/repeat.el

+            (set-transient-map map t)))))))
