Tried the following, and it did not work (ion-2rc-20040206).
Did i misunderstand you?
appended to ion-bindings.lua:
genframe_bindings{ kpress(DEFAULT_MOD.."A", nil) }
resulting error on startup:
Unable to remove binding Mod1+A. Either you are trying to remove a
binding that has not been set or you're trying to bind to a nil function

sounds as if the functionality you need should be implemented not as an
alternative to using lua functions but as a layer on top of that.
