You can, I've done exactly that! Create a copy
of the global-map and then
`substitute-key-definition' for a function
that, as you say, turns itself off after doing
its special thing.

But when I did that, I didn't know of that
other thing mentioned already, which is
probably the right way to do it - only it seems
a bit complicated...

If you succeed with a small snippet, feel free
to post it here!
