Many root level bindings that you expected to be cleared are stored in
the *tile-group-root-map* and *group-root-map*. Those have to be
cleared too. When you hit the prefix key stumpwm looks up the next
keystroke in *root-map* and if no match is found then it checks
*group-root-map* and if no match is found it looks in
*tile-group-root-map* IF you're in a tiling group. It checks
*float-group-root-map* if you're in a float group. Kind of
complicated.
