It occured to me after posting my previous reply, there is one
obvious case where the output of kbd is a string, which is itself a
valid string in keyboard macro format, representing a different key
sequence. Consider the following:
(kbd "C - x SPC S P C SPC C - c")
"C-x SPC C-c"
(kbd "C-x SPC C-c")
"\C-x \C-c"
(kbd "\C-x \C-c")
"\C-x\C-c"
So the answer is clearly not, even in cases where it looks like it
might be.
