There was previously some suggestion to reserve M-o as a prefix map for
third-party packages like Magit, to avoid a situation like the recent
one with C-x g.

It occurs to me that in that case, Emacs could still bind a few keys
under the prefix, like M-o M-o, for core functionality, but leave the
rest open.

Is there still an appetite for something like that?
