The `keymap' text or overlay property can have a value that is
`keymapp', which means that it can be a list with car `keymap' etc. or a
symbol whose `symbol-function' is a keymap.
Please allow it to also be a symbol, such as `Info-mode-map', whose
`symbol-value' is a keymap. It is used only as a keymap. It is not
used as a function. It is convenient to be able to reuse an existing
keymap variable to provide a map for a given portion of text.
Likewise, for property `local-map'.
(I'm guessing that I cannot change Emacs to recognize this, myself,
because it involves the C level (e.g. `key-binding' or `lookup-key').
If I'm mistaken, please point me to the Lisp code that interprets
the keymap property, looks up a key in the map and invokes its command.)
