Sure,

(define-key map "a" '("Foo function" . foo))

This is the behavior from before (the second sets the new optional arg to
nil)

(lookup-key map "a") => foo
(lookup-key map "a" nil nil) => foo

With the new last argument set to t,

(lookup-key map "a" nil t) => ("Foo function" . foo)

The motivation for this patch was to be able to easily retrieve ("Foo
function" . foo) in a case like this.

Best,
Justin
