Any chance that the number of keystrokes displayed by `view-lossage',
currently hard-coded at 100, could be made a user option?

It's not easily done, since the keys are recorded in a statically
allocated C array whose size is a compile-time constant. I won't
recommend such a change for before the release, but that's just me.

Actually, it is recorded in a Lisp Vector, so it should be
trivial to increase the size of that vector.
We could add the size of the lossage buffer as a second
arg to clear-this-command-keys which already interfaces
to the recent keys vector.

I don't see an urgent need, but it would be a trivial change.

No, nothing urgent or even very important. If it could be done, I think it
would be helpful. Even increasing 100 to, say 500 or 1000 would be helpful.
For some reason, I find that on the rare occasions that I need to use this,
what I'm looking for is often further back than 100 keystrokes.

I am glad it is so simple. I'd still rather save it for after the
release, but at that time, please make the change.

I would not mind if this were done, but it should be after the release.
