No, I didn't forget.  I just prefer to solve a problem by the simplest
fix, and introducing a whole new set of bindings seems more complex
than strictly needed.  That proposal also didn't seem to have too many
supporters.

But I'm okay with that as well, if it will be deemed as an acceptable
fix.

I keep that in mind as well.  But if enough people are okay with "C-x G"
we might decide to break that rule here anyway.
