Yes.

Because emacs predates all the modern "consumer" keyboard interfaces by a  
decade or more, and because vanilla emacs is available for just about  
every platform except possibly Babbage's original Analytical Engine, it  
really makes sense to avoid grandly "localised" versions of emacs. In my  
view Aquamacs is the cure for which there is no disease.
