Most of SLIME's commands don't work before the user creates a connection
with `M-x slime' or 'M-x slime-connect'.  Those two don't have key
bindings; so I guess your idea is not applicable.  I think it's also
more natural to enable all of SLIME's keys in lisp-mode-hook, even if
there's no connection yet, rather than as side effect of creating the
first connection.
