            Emacs, a play by Bertolt Brecht
            -------------------------------

Emacs:  Please proffer your suggestions on how Emacs could be
        improved, for we wish to attract new users!

Me:     As a comparatively new user, I remember when learning Emacs
        I found this part ugly and confusing. Here is a suggestion
        from such a perspective on how it could be improved.

Emacs:  It seems impossible that a new user would find that part
        ugly or confusing. It is unthinkable that it would be
        improved.

Thanks for the response. Please don't consider this as my proposal, I
don't really want to keep debating whether I found something
ugly/confusing or not. It's just a thing left in the Emacs Suggestion
Box. Do with what you will.
