You avoid the use of an extra keymap variable by instead storing the receipe for creating the keymap in a symbol property, thus making Stefan happy. However, it means all changes made from Lisp is lost whenever it is changed from customize. Could you explain why that consequence would follow? I don't see any general reason why it would. Perhaps it is the consequence of some specific details of the proposed solution--in which case, how about changing those details?
