Should `C-o d' echo just one "d"? How does Emacs know when the keystroke is terminated? Some timeout? Is this something that's around Emacs in general? How do you set it up regardless of what C-D does? I know you mentioned search - I have my own search [1] which is why possibly I never noticed. Or is it more common than that?
