Thanks Juri, I took a look at your implementation.  It has at least the
following issue: the same command cannot be used to continue several
repeat maps.  Consider for instance the following example:

(defvar-keymap repeat-list-map
  :doc "Keymap for repeating sequences."
  :repeat ( :continue-only (yank undo))
  "n" 'forward-list
  "p" 'backward-list
  "C-/" 'undo
  "y" 'yank)

(defvar-keymap repeat-paragraph-map
  :doc "Keymap for repeating sequences."
  :repeat ( :continue-only (yank undo))
  "]" 'forward-paragraph
  "}" 'forward-paragraph
  "[" 'backward-paragraph
  "{" 'backward-paragraph
  "C-/" 'undo
  "y" 'yank)

This is why I think the repeat-continue-only property should be a list
specifying which repeat maps the command should continue.
