I like the idea, I think.  But just thinking out loud without having
read the code closely -- would it perhaps be even more useful to have
the transient method in place until you `C-x \' again?

Then you could

`C-x \ ...  type a couple of words in that method C-x \'

I'm not at all sure, but I think that perhaps people would more often
type in a couple of words than just a single key sequence?
