Why?  Do we define that term anywhere?  A keymap is,
itself, not something that can be repeated in any way.

And what constitutes a keymap with repeatable commands?
Is a keymap with one repeatable command repeatable, even
if it also has bindings for commands that are not
repeatable?

What's the use in listing such keymaps?  And what does
it mean to describe them?  `describe-keymap' lists the
bindings of a keymap.  But your reply to Robert, saying
that "keybindings could be added as well", suggests that
you mean something different by describing a keymap than
what `describe-keymap' does, which is to list a keymap's
key bindings.
