The documentation here is rather unclear:

---
Optional third arg KEYS, if given, specifies the sequence of events to
supply, as a vector, if the command inquires which events were used to
invoke it.
---

But apparently `this-single-command-keys' is not the way to inquire
about what events were used to invoke it, and I'm not quite sure what
this is in reference to.  I thought that perhaps it was an interactive
spec or something, but no.

Reading the source code wasn't enlightening, either.  Anybody know what
"inquires which events" is in reference to?
