A big -1 on that. C-c <letter> is reserved to users. That's not very
many, but OTOH it's a very clear, and by now fairly well-known, and
very simple, rule. Advertising random keys as available just because
they're not currently bound would be confusing and constraining.
I'm a small :-) -1 on the present proposal to bind M-n/M-p to
paragraph movement because they already have bindings in the default
global keymap. I am aware that M-} is not easy to type on many
keyboards, and binding M-n to forward-paragraph would be a great
customization for people who prefer those layouts. OTOH, there may be
other reasonable bindings (eg, I bind a command that rotates the tabs,
as I often have 2-3 times as many related buffers as can reasonably
fit on the tabs).
