So I'm clear, the command right-word, which is only useful
when editing bidirectional (not merely right-to-left) text ,
and even then only changes the orientation of the very basic
command forward-word (still bound to M-f), is so important
it needs TWO very similar default key bindings (M-right and
C-right). And an optional minor-mode, when enabled, can't
shadow ONE of those bindings so that its very commonly used
command outline-demote can be, by default, on the easy to
type and remember M-right instead of only the difficult to
type and remember C-c @ C-right to match the behavior of the
very popular org-mode.
I agree that default bindings should be changed with
caution, even great caution, but IMHO if this case doesn't
meet that threshold I'm hard pressed to think of another
that can.
