Some command like C-u C-x C-e produce them, whereas others such as C-u M-: produce identical output without the local keymap. That's a bug--I will fix C-u M-:. All without any apparent rhyme or reason and without any way to distinguish the two outputs other than to move one's mouse over them. Should they be given colors all the time, is that what you're suggesting? Clearly, basic editing commands like RET should not be rebound using local keymaps, except in read-only buffers. What do you think of M-RET, then?
