Subject: set-temporary-overlay-map seems poorly named
Date: Sat, 21 Dec 2013 13:45:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k3eysqni.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)

This function, new in Emacs 24.4, seems to have nothing to do with
overlays in the usual Emacs sense.  So it's a bad name.

How about renaming it to `set-transient-keymap'?
