It is proposed to repurpose one key, and to reserve it in the key binding conventions for third-party packages. The keys that could be reserved for that purpose are:Option 1. C-z, with a single exception: "C-z C-z" would be bound to "suspend-frame"Please don't. C-z is bound to "suspend" since a very long time (it's even mentioned in Craig Finseth's book), and it is one of the few keys that has an universal meaning on the tty in Unix like systems, across applications.Also, it would be a large pain to use anything other than a single key for this function.
Do you really mean that it is "a large pain" to type "C-z C-z" (three keypresses) instead of "C-z" (two keypresses)? For something you don't do frequently?
