Currently, this works (typing "ESC $ a" inserts `A'):
(local-set-key "\e$a" 'ignore)
(define-key key-translation-map "\e$a" [?A])
but this doesn't work:
(local-set-key "\e$a" 'ignore)
(define-key function-key-map "\e$a" [?A])
That is what I meant in "function-key-map can't override
global/local map".

I agree. So, we should adjust info to the current behaviour
instead of changing the code.
