Message-ID: <E1JwhQt-0005KH-Fc@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

Command `custom-create-keymap-option' creates a user option of the same =
name as
its keymap argument, but with `-defs' appended. E.g.,
M-x custom-create-keymap-option RET bookmark-map
We should not ask _users_ to type any commands to make a map
customizable. Rather, all the keymaps that Emacs knows about should
be known to Custom as well. So anything that has to be done in order
to make a keymap known to Custom should be done in the Lisp code.
It would make sense to have a command `customize-keymap' as a user
interface for running Custom to customize one particular keymap.
But we also should be able to include keymaps in custom groups.
Unlike faces, keymaps, apart from keymap-valued variables, do not
have names, so the approach I suggested makes sense: customize
keymap variables, not "first-class" keymap objects.
If that works out conveniently, I am not against it.
It would be nice if the macros for defining major modes
were connected to this, so that all the keymaps were
customizable.
