I don't follow "it does something else than what you're looking for". hydra
is used to define interfaces to temporary keymaps with well-formatted hints.

I meant that use hydra to define such interfaces.. the package authors
would need to use hydra to define these interfaces. All the user would need
to know is to hit some X binding to get that popup interface.

I quickly went though hydra.el.. isn't defhydra mainly what it is? What
would you suggest splitting out of that library?
