Agreed.
(But as I pointed out, there are 3rd-party libraries
and 3rd-party libraries. A well-known, heavily used
library is different in this regard from a small
shared user library. The potential problem is there
for 2 or more large, heavily-used libraries to have
conflicting bindings. But I too don't see even that
as much of a problem, in practice. The problem of
trying to compete with Emacs default bindings is a
much bigger, more real problem - it's the problem at
the heart of this thread, IMO.)

Yup. Well put.

Yup (for some meaning of "work" ;-)).
