Well, I don't use eldoc (I should.)
My setup is also quite primitive.

I use registers a lot. I register the point, the window configuration,
I register chunks of text, etc.
I also use ElScreen, which implements tabs for Emacs:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsLispScreen
I could not actually live without ElScreen and I can't wait to use
something native.

Usual commands (C-x C-x) and registers.

No.

Configuration is like hair: with age, you somehow become minimalist :)
Besides using register-list.el¹, I don't have any particular setup.
Sorry I can't help more! Looking forward reading other answers...
Best,
