Or perhaps refer to emacs-devel?  I'm not sure whether any choice here
would skew things one way or the other (i.e., what annoyance level do we
wish to get feedback on)?

Anyway, I had a look at that keymap for the first time ever, and:

Global Bindings Starting With M-o:
key             binding
---             -------

M-o ESC         Prefix Command
M-o b           facemenu-set-bold
M-o d           facemenu-set-default
M-o i           facemenu-set-italic
M-o l           facemenu-set-bold-italic
M-o o           facemenu-set-face
M-o u           facemenu-set-underline

M-o M-S         center-paragraph
M-o M-o         font-lock-fontify-block
M-o M-s         center-line

There's more commands there!  I had no idea -- I though all of `M-o' was
just a facemenu thing...
