I have a function that I have bound to <alt-a> with 'bind -x'". I would
like to be able to pass some simple argument or state to the called
function, so that it could behave differently depending on this state.
Passing an argument to a function bound with `bind -x' isn't currently
supported. This is because the function that walks the key sequence to
find the correct function in the keymap binding doesn't currently handle
numeric arguments in the sequence.
