Ah, thanks! It seems this is exactly what is missing in EXS24 (and  
much more).

Here's a suggestion: older samplers (I'm a former Roland sampler  
user) had an alternate loop option, i.e. the lopp is played back  
forward, then backwards, then forward and so on. AFAIK no software  
sampler allows for this, though often a good loop can be achieved  
this way when it's difficult to get a good loop with the standard  
forward-only method. This could be integrated into Keymap. I know  
CDXtract can "unroll" alternate loops in existing samples, but it  
cannot create new ones.

Another comment: browsing through the user's guide I found the  
following sentence: "Keymap is also not a plugin, and you can’t place  
it in a Logic channel strip" (page 5). It's probably not of much  
practical use, but this actually might be possible using Jack:

And, in my very humble opinion, the Keymap user's guide *really*  
needs a table of contents... ;-)
