I meant "changing the semantics of `real-last-command'". We'd change
the semantics by _not_ setting it.

Yes. But if we were to suggest not testing `real-last-command' in Lisp
code (aside from repeat.el) we probably shouldn't mention that variable
in the manual in the first place.

We could call it `last-repeatable-command' and have repeat.el use that
instead of `real-last-command'. I attached a patch for keyboard.c.

We maybe should say somewhere that it's a bad idea to change
`last-command-char' (and probably `real-last-command' and
`last-repeatable-command' as well) while executing a command.
