Thanks for reference.
So any major/minor mode designer MUST follow this rules.
I look to 'jabber-keymap.el':
(defvar jabber-global-keymap
...
"Global Jabber keymap (usually under C-x C-j)")
(define-key ctl-x-map "\C-j" jabber-global-keymap)
So this package define 'C-x C-j' globally. If another package use this key
binding user must resolve conflict manually?
Are there any guide to avoid conflicts?
My suggestion is to check most popular packages and make some thing different
key bindings. But globally maintained key binding registry make life much
easy...
