	The useful function `set-temporary-overlay-map' is not documented
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2012 19:20:08 +0200

Hi,

the function `set-temporary-overlay-map' seems to be useful for elisp
developers but is not documented. I propose the following documentation:

"Set a new keymap that will only exist for a short period of time.

The new keymap to use must be given in the MAP variable. When to remove
the keymap depends on user input and KEEP-PRED:

- if KEEP-PRED is nil (the default), the keymap disappears as soon as
  any key is pressed, whether or not the key is in MAP;

- if KEEP-PRED is t, the keymap disappears as soon as a key *not* in MAP
  is pressed;

- otherwise, KEEP-PRED must be a 0-arguments predicate that will decide
  if the keymap should be removed (if predicate returns nil) or kept
  (otherwise). The predicate will be called after each key sequence."
