But then means that the equivalent to C-y wouldn't be "<prefix> C-e" but
"<prefix> C-e <prefix>", which is becoming significantly
more burdensome.  We're slowly getting to the point where M-e becomes
a worthy contender.  Maybe it's OK, but I was thinking of something more
lightweight that would only accept one command so as to avoid needing an
additional "exit" key.

That might be a good choice, but:
- we lack experimental evidence for that.
- it would probably be too big a change to have that as a default behavior.
