1. Also, what is the extent of the keymaps and bindings? Can one bind a key to
1. a bash function?

2. No, although this wouldn't be to difficult to implement.  Votes please.

I think it would be more powerful to bind keys to any text sequence:
	bind meta-K to ^Jlogout^J
for example.

Again, I'd really love the ability to do TCSH-style "bind" commands in
BASH; having to do my edit bindings by doing "vi ~/.inputrc ; exec bash"
is a real lose.
