Thanks.  I have a few comments:

"fixes", I guess?

We say "key bindings" not "shortcuts".

Not sure I understand the reason for this.  "Deletion" goes together
with "delete", so why use "remove" instead?

As a general rule, whenever you use @dfn to introduce new terminology,
you should have a suitable @cindex entry, so that readers could easily
find the description of the term if they see it later in the manual.

Comma is missing there.

"Display the image ... into Emacs" sounds awkward.  I'd say "in Emacs"
instead.

Is that a typo?

A comma missing there.

Is this part just a refill of the same text?
