Let's look at the emacs manual:
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Save-Keyboard-Macro.html
.

The last paragraph says, literally:
If you give insert-kbd-macro a numeric argument, it makes additional Lisp
code to record the keys (if any) that you have bound to macroname, so that
the macro will be reassigned the same keys when you load the file.

This very feature is what I'm asking about. ¿Am i missing something?
