Huh? M-g was a prefix key before the change... > no previous desire, not fitting the feature > freeze. Is this a plot to distract people from releasing? IMO, it is a reasonable opportunity to DTRT before locking M-g down as a single command-key only. > C-x ` completely sucks as a keybinding on many international > keyboards.

That is C-x S-? on my keyboard which is still cumbersome for something you type very frequently. M-g-n (hold M while pressing g + n) is just so much better, and allows you to go back as well M-g-p ... And it is also easy to repeat M-g-n-g-n-g-p (ups, got one too far). -- Kim F.
