I often want to run a file through a checker, or test it in some way, but I don't want to make a keybinding for every different kind of checker/tester, since I'm only doing repetitions of one at each time.
If you bind the same key to all commands you get a menu when you press that key -- not the same, but probably an improvement over no key.
What you could do is let each command write its ID or similar to a file in /tmp and then have a command (with a key) which checks this file to see what action to actually perform.
It requires a little more work, but the net result would be the same AFAICT.
