But what of other C-c combinations? There are no rules about them in
this Elisp manual page, and no uses of them in the Emacs manual "Key
Index".
There are no rules yet about C-BACKSPACE and C-DELETE.
They are analogous to control characters, which argues
for using them for major modes.
Does anyone think that is a mistake?
