I agree it would be useful to have a list to guide people who
develop new majer modes.  It could be an incomplete list of characters
that some majer modes rebind, with an incomplete list of modes that
rebind each one.

We could separate it into two sublists.

1. Characters that are rebound with a mode-specific way
of doing the same job.

2. Characters that are rebound to do a totally different job
because their standard job is useless or meaningless in that mode.
