Neat!
The documentation for the `global-set-key` function, at least in
24.5.3 and in the emacs-25 branch as at d9ea7950, doesn't mention
this possibility:
(global-set-key KEY COMMAND)
Give KEY a global binding as COMMAND. COMMAND is the command
definition to use; usually it is a symbol naming an
interactively-callable function.
Perhaps it should be modified to refer to COMMAND-OR-VECTOR?
Alexis.
