This change will not be on emacs-25 (as this issue existed forever), so there's no rush in implementing it. You can do it whenever you have time. If you cannot afford working more on this issue, then I guess we will have to wait for someone else to implement my suggestion (or something similar). > On the other hand, I think it would be sad to have to wait (perhaps forever!) for a "good" fix, when an > acceptable fix is available.

So indeed future applications may need the "good" fix, but no (reasonable) > application will be adversely affected by this fix. I don't think I asked for something so complicated and hard to accomplish that it would justify partial fixes on master. I'm very uneasy with having the list of hard-coded events we ignore for this purpose continue to grow one event at a time. Making this controlled by a Lisp variable will make its future maintenance much easier, including when someone, perhaps you, comes up complaining about yet another obscure event. Thanks.
