Please don't do this.  Don't remove `C-x g' from
the little remaining virgin (non-default) key
territory.

It is not "high time" to bind this or any other
key by default.  It's high time to _desist_ from
having default Emacs taking over more territory.
It doesn't need it, and it shouldn't take it.

35 years with no global binding for `revert-buffer'.
No problem - thousands of users and hackers.  But
now, from one user request Lars decides it's "high
time"...  No need.

All proposals to sacrifice keys to default bindings
should really be discussed on emacs-devel.
