Thank you Eli Zaretskii for your rapid answer:

Unfortunately this doesn't work.
Since ispell-command-loop uses the function read-key to get the users answer,
it is not straight forward to use
C-q
or
C-x 8 RET
sequences: C-q is instantaneously read as ^q and C-x as ^x. Both are
discarded immediately by ispell-command-loop as wrong input, so they can not
be used to build sequences.

I will do this.
Of course one might ask whether it is useful to offer such a mass of options.
Maybe it would be enough to limit their number.
But however: Is there a method--some translation keymaps or
something alike--that allows to enter a key code numerically to read-key?
