If you mean "C-x 4 C-h", yes but, "C-h k C-x 4" is left waiting for
further input and "C-h k C-x 4 C-h" just says there is no binding for
it.
There is no universal way to get further information at that point. If
"C-h k" had a solution it would apply uniformly and not require mucking about
which changing any (other) key bindings.
Should there be a general rule than any partial key sequence have "C-h"
show the possible options? And if so wouldn't it be more straight
forward to not have to manually define for each possible key sequence,
but still have any exiting such binding still work?
