Hm, I played around with the widget-browser for the first time.  Nice
piece of work.  :)  It helped me solve a problem.  New version is
attached.  Save it, load it, then M-x customize-option my-keymap and
play around with it.  The only key that has an old binding in
my-keymap is f11.

The problem with the code above is that none of the parents has a
correct :keymap property.  What we need, here, is to either set an
appropriate property from custom-declare-keymap (how?), or to search
for something else:  We need the first parent having a :value property
that is a keymap.  What do you think?

Widget object browser.
Class: custom-variable
:documentation-shown
        t
:custom-state
        changed
:tag
        "My Keymap"
:value
        my-keymap

Here is a way to implement this.

(defun widget-ancestor-get (widget property &optional predicate)
  "Starting from WIDGET, return the value of PROPERTY.
The value of PROPERTY will only be returned if it satisfies PREDICATE.
PREDICATE is a function accepting one parameter, the value of PROPERTY.
If PROPERTY is not specified or nil in WIDGET and the :parent property is 
non-nil, call `widget-ancestor-get' recusively with the value of the :parent
property.  Otherwise, return nil."
  (cond ((and predicate
              (widget-get widget property)
              (funcall predicate (widget-get widget property)))
         (widget-get widget property))
        ((and (not predicate)
              (widget-get widget property)))
        ((widget-get widget :parent)
         (widget-ancestor-get (widget-get widget :parent) property))
        (nil)))

Then we can use the following helper (assuming that
widget-ancestor-get will be used in other contexts in the future,
eventhough it is defined in cus-key.el only at the moment):

(defun key-sequence-find-map (widget)
  "Find the map that WIDGET is supposed to customize."
  (let ((sym (widget-ancestor-get
              widget :value
              (lambda (sym)
                (and (symbolp sym)
                     (boundp sym)
                     (keymapp (symbol-value sym)))))))
    (if sym
        (symbol-value sym)
      (current-global-map))))

I have retained the alternative (current-global-map), but I don't know
when it would ever be used...  If it ever got used, that would
indicate a bug to me.  What do you think, Per?
