lookup-key/define-key already understands that format, but mixes the
interpretation into the code itself.

(lookup-key (current-global-map) [(control x) (control f)])
=> find-file

Pulling it out of the code and putting it into
possibly_translate_key_sequence would be fine, I think.

Uhm...  I'm not sure what the impact would be...
