(`key-binding' can't be used to look up events, and I am less
than certain that it should).
Of course key-binding can be used to look up events. If you want to
look them up in the current active keymaps, key-binding is the natural
way. The recent change affects the lookup of events that specify
positions. It has no effect on what happens if you pass a list of
event-types without positions.
Perhaps there is a misunderstanding here about what it means
to "look up events".
a) add an additional optional parameter BASE-KEY which, when non-NIL,
will replace KEY for all purposes of lookup except determining the
keymaps to use when KEY is a key-sequence based on an event.
I don't follow this at all, sorry.
b) have a function `event-replace-key' or something with a better name
which will take a key sequence based on an event and swap out the
basic event (but maybe _not_ its modifiers since they can play a part
in which keymap to use) and swap out the `down-mouse-2' or similar
with `follow-link'.
What does "swap out" mean here?
