I'm not quite sure what the request is here -- to add key bindings for
`paredit-forward-slurp-sexp' and `paredit-forward-barf-sexp' to
`emacs-lisp-mode?  (Or `lisp-mode-shared-map', I guess...)

I'm not sure these are commands that are generally used that much to
warrant doing that, and I think people that are really into these things
just enable paredit mode (or something similar).

But I may be wrong in that -- if there's a clamouring for these commands
having a key binding in Lispish modes, I wouldn't be against adding
them.  What do the rest of you people think?
