Sure I wrote an essay on this once. :)

I agree entirely. I've been questing for the perfect editor for three
years now and still haven't found it; one of my major problems is that
I want ^S for save, ^Q for quit, and Windows cut/copy/paste keys. I can
rebind Emacs keys to be that, of course, but it breaks the whole world
because of all the combinations that are <one of those keys><something
else>. Plus, Lisp, which might be beautiful and elegant but doesn't
seem to work the way my head works or something...
