Re: short cuts

[Richard Stallman]

    He seems to want different shortcuts (e.g. ctrl-tab to cycle buffers),

That we could easily do.  Does the command bury-buffer do the right
thing for this?

    And a menu bar like the one in most apps nowadays (see "gedit" for a
    free example), where Alt-f goes to the _F_ile menu, , Alt-e goes to
    the _E_dit  menu etc (modifier + accelerator marked in menubar opens
    the menu)

That, of course, would be drastically incompatible.  Perhaps this
could be done if we used something other that Alt.  Would the feature
still be useful if it were changed in that way?  Or would the
incompatibility render it pointless?
