I don't know, but maybe your approach is too simplistic?  A binding can
also be a function.  Like this in mouse.el:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(define-key key-translation-map [mouse-1]
  #'mouse--click-1-maybe-follows-link)
#+end_src

for example.  It might be worth to try to achieve what you want using a
similar function.
