Take in account also different keyboard layouts 'dvorak' as an example of
severals. On dvorak C-t is easier than C-x. But perhaps a tip for
someone going to a different layout would be try modal editing with
'god-mode' or other similar tools.
And Also. Do not forget the emacs pinky problem. That' sometimes leads
You to rebind some most used keybindings.
