Actually, "unsetkey" is not required here, as the "setkey" overwrites the
old binding.

(Unsetkey is required, if you want a longer key-combination, e.g.

 unsetkey("\e%");
 setkey("push_spot;replace_cmd;pop_spot", "\e%a");
 setkey("replace_cmd", "\e%b");

)

You can also write a new function

define replace_and_come_back()
{
   push_spot();
   replace_cmd();
   pop_spot();
}

and bind this to your "replace-key-combo". (untested)
