        [ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider
        [ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,
        [ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example.

    There are a lot of reactions on this thread that seem somewhat hesitant
    about emacs adding WYSIWIG support, but I suspect it's fear that #2 will
    corrupt the lisp machine interfaces that we already know and
    enjoy... but I doubt that the emacs community would let that happen
    anyway.

Lisp is one of the benefits of Emacs that I wish I had when doing
WYSIWIG word processing.  To abandon that would defeat the whole point
of this.
