I doubt that, because we already tried that in CUA mode.  That one
actually was better posed to succeed, since its key bindings weren't
invented "out of thin air", but use widely accepted conventions.

That said, I have no objection to having non-default sets of key
bindings that users can turn on at will.  I was only responding to
what I thought was a proposal for conducting such experiments with the
eventual goal of making the bindings the default.
