   but anything else is really pushing emacs as a text editor
   past its design goals and way too much effort for the return
   you get.

i think one design goal of emacs is that its users should feel
free to push, and push hard.  "editing" in the most generalized
sense includes changes to the "editor" (machine or human).  for
some, the changes stop at the eyes and ears.  for others, the
brain is changed.  for others, the ~/.emacs is changed.  and
yet for others, the ~/.emacs leads to further changes w/o stop.

(it is true, humans die, but what we share is not limited so.)

emacs is a platform for editing.
