I don't know if it's more common or not, but I tend to use (:key map) most of the time, because it's a visual cue that I'm getting some key from a map. Whenever you see (:key something), you know that you're getting the :key field from something. When you see (something :key), you have to be more aware of the context to know whether something is a map or some other function.
