Essentially the question I asked emacs-devel today (based on this thread, though
I had forgotten where I saw it). See emacs-devel thread "question about
`quit-char'", FYI.

The answer I got was no, not in Emacs 23 (or 22 or 21...). Later, maybe. 

There was a fair amount of noise and distraction in the thread, but that's the
answer I took away for this question.
