Nope.

I am working on the branch scratch/substitute-command-keys to replace
s-c-k with a Lisp version, but I have not had much time lately so
there has been no progress in a couple of months. I can't remember the
current status, but I think there may be some tests for this there. Or
I didn't get to that yet, sorry, I can't remember now.

I hope that this would be easier to fix once we have the Lisp version
of s-c-k (and I would personally prefer not to see any changes to the
C version meanwhile ;-)).

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
