Jesus. And I thought RMS had an attitude the size of Montana.
You're entitled to any opinion you wish to hold, and I'm entitled to
mine, but let's just make it bloody damn clear that it is *you* who
are farting around with default behavior that has existed in Emacs for
something like 15 years, all in the name of pseudo-"progress" embodied
by the Keymap Purity Hit Squad.
Amen. And, for what it's worth, it's more than 15 years. I'm pretty
sure you could claim 20 without a problem although I can only vouch
for about about 17 of them.
