I tend to use vanilla emacs once per month (not regularly). One of the
things I would change would be:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The idea, is not changing it. For me It is just mentioning some things ouf of
our experience as emacs users who from time to time experience|use
vanilla-emacs. Perhaps another person who use vanilla-emacs would say
'+1' to one of our suggestions (who knows).


Best Regards
