Re: Standardizing more key bindings?

[yarnton]

I was actually planning to post the same suggestion in the How to make Emacs popular again thread.

Emacs is a bit unfriendly, even to advanced users, in this regard. There are some de facto conventions about keybindings, especially in programming modes. Enforcing said conventions a bit more strictly, either with some written guidelines or programmatically, would be a great step forward.

As you have noted, Spacemacs and other customization layers do a good job at making the whole interface more consistent.
