    In theory I agree, but after using KDE apps some time I find my self
    pressing ESC without thinking if I happen to press Alt and change my mind.  
    KDE and Windows behave the same, but GNOME does not, so it is not easy to 
    chose.

GNOME is the GNU desktop.  In working on GNU packages such as Emacs,
we should choose consistency with GNOME, so as to make the GNU system
as a whole maximally coherent.
