I agree. I have configured mine and I am satisfied with it.  However,
I remember now, how hard it was.  As context menu was introduced, it
is good for Emacs to be friendly.

To have an ELPA package to offer a minor mode to offer consistent key
bindings is a good idea.

How about listing this project to (info "(emacs) Contributing")?
