I haven't studied your code, but IIRC we discussed some time ago whether
we could use 

  (define-key keymap [remap olddef] newdef)

for this.  I don't recall what the conclusion was.

There may well be reasons why this doesn't always work -- but maybe we
should at least mention the alternative of using command remapping in
the doc string for substitute-key-definition.
