Or make `C-x =' a prefix key for a keymap with more keybindings for
counting commands like count-words, count-lines-page,
count-lines-region, count-matches, what-cursor-position,
what-page, what-line.

As for finding a key to rebind `M-=' in Dired, I wonder why couldn't
`C-x v =' call `diff-backup' (or `dired-backup-diff' in Dired) in case when
it can't find a VC backend?
