Like the repeat `mode', where you press 'y' and it repeats the last command,
but every other key works normally.
When a keymap has a (t . some-command) cons, every key not mapped calls
some-command. If this some-command turns of the keymap (the mode) and
pushes the event, which was not mapped, back in the event loop, it's like
auto-shut-down (mode wise), might call it a mini-mode.
