(...) They are highly popular key bindings that I, FWIW, am using
every day.
Even 'M-<delete>' that does something opposite to 'M-d', when <delete>
and 'C-d' do the same thing? Doesn't that bother you? For me it's
inconsistency, but maybe there is a reason for this...
And btw, I can never understand these arguments about changing what
Emacs does by default. You can easily rebind the keys yourself, so
why force your personal preferences on everyone else?
If I would want to change 'C-a' to 'C-b' (or 'C-S-<backspace>' as
I tried, but not any more) then you are right, but not in this case.
The above example is not a change just because I like it (I don't even
use it), but rather spotting inconsistency and pointing it out.
As for 'C-<backspace>' also "no", because I was trying to reuse
something that is already there ('M-<backspace>'). But fine, someone
may use 'C-...', so I could leave it alone as well.
