Please don’t.  I have not really made any policy decisions of sort.  I
only missed "<s" once it was cleaned away, and I only "improved/changed"
"C-c C-," to better suit my taste.  I am not a designer, I just type on my
keyboard until it "stuff" works again...

Anyhow, my general opinion on these matters is that I wouldn’t want to
remove any batteries.  I like included batteries...

I certainly won’t be :)
