I am sure you have noticed that, or? No, I didn't notice your complaints about M-TAB; sorry. But I see them now, as well as your complaint about ESC TAB. Do you also have a problem using C-M-i? At any rate, if you want to discuss this for Lisp mode in general, why not start a separate thread - it has nothing to do with M-: in particular.
