For me, your "eg" binding works perfectly fine without a final enter
press.

If you use a key binding that uses the "console" command, it opens the
console instead of executing the command right away.  *Then* you need to
press enter aftewards.  Usually, the solution to this is to remove the
word "console" from your key binding.

Sadly the answer to these questions is no.
