Right.  I misspoke.  I didn't mean that only bound
key sequences are complete key sequences.

The point is that there's no such thing as a "command"
key sequence", just as there's no such thing as a
non-command key sequence.  Key sequences can be bound
only to commands - not to anything else.  Commands
can be bound to key sequences - not to anything else.
