Is it possible to have the best of all possible
worlds?

For conservatives, a winter release of old gold keybindings.
For the free radicals, a spring release with modernizations.

When I use a long M-x sequence, a shortcut suggestion appears. It disappears 
before I can catch it. Can it stay for 30 seconds? Can there be an instant 
interactive override to set it whatever you like? Evolutionary programming of 
popular custom keybindings collected at upstream and put thru obstacle course 
competition is one way of composing a spring release.
