I wrote the code for this command and have been using
it since 2007.

I already objected here two months ago to Emacs using
`C-h M' for this - in the message just after the one
you chose to reply to.

I requested that `C-h M-k' be used.  That's the key
I and others have been using for years.  And it's
mnemonic with "keymap" and "key".

Is there a good reason my input is just ignored?

For more info, including other problems with the
patch provided:

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30660#26

And I do suggest that the other features provided
in the original code be included in the vanilla
version as well.
