Before trying to answer such a question, you should ask yourself whether
there's a way to get what you want *without* needing to put things back
on unread-command-events (i.e. so the event is only consumed when you
need to consume it).

I think if you use key remapping, such as input-decode-map, you can get
what you want.  Look for that variable in lisp/emulation/viper.el to see
how Viper handles VI's escape key, for example.
