Please don't.  I use yow.el with a local file to print funny one-line
error messages, i.e. what I do is

  (fset 'undefined 'yow)
  (setq yow-file ".../talker.msg")

and when a wrong key is pressed in a read-only buffer, it displays a
misleading error message.  For instance, trying to visit a file in the
dired buffer with a wrong key may display such an error message:

  File not found. Should I fake it? (y/n)
or
  Close your eyes and press escape three times.

This is useful to always get ready for any surprise :-)
