I've tweaked the documentation to reflect this, thanks.  (I think you
are confused, though; key remapping occurs in the KEY argument.)

Documentation of `define-key's DEF arg does not provide description of
the `remap'
feature e.g. how one can accomplish:
	
 (define-key '<SOME-MAP> [remap <SOME-COMMAND>] '<SOME-OTHER-COMMAND>)

Likewise, the docs should present an explicit link to the manual describing the
`remap' feature e.g.:

 (See info node `(elisp)Remapping Commands'.)
