Agreed. Given such a restriction, it would make more sense to do the
conversion directly while recording the macro (so you either record
a "keyboard macro" (the old thingy) or a "command macro" (the new
thingy)). One advantage of this approach is that it makes it OK if it
behaves a bit differently than keyboard macros, since it's
a different beast.
