Hi Timothy,

I think there is no function for that, unfortunately. You can look at
my plugin:
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3767
how I have implemented a grep through the mappings. Basically I dump
the output of the map command (or its variations) and use a vim pattern
to match against the rhs. As far as I understand you want to have
something similar.

Best,
Marcin
