   You don't seem to be hearing that I want more
   than just reserving one prefix key, `C-o'.

Most (All?) keyboards today have a Super key -- why not allocate that
or parts of it to global third-party packages?

This solves moving things around, and constantly breaking things for
people.  One could put up a similar scheme for reserving keys for
users, and third party keys there as it is done for C-.

The key is also easily rebindable to another position for those who so
wish, one can put it on the Fn keys, or on Caps-Lock.  Putting it
under a seperate super-map would also allow userss to put it under
some other key as well.

There are far more solutions to this problem than just unbinding keys
unconditionally for some unknown future case that nobody can figure
out.
