Right, many WM/DE block some keyboard inputs like `M-<TAB>', `M-<SPC>',
`C-M-d' and `C-M-l'. And I think a lightweight WM/DE is preferred.
Because Emacs can do everything, it can take the place of most features
in a DE.
It's also a question of web browser. For this question, I prefer
Conkeror, because it is mainly patterned after Emacs.
It's also a question of X toolkit. For this question, I prefer
Gtk+, because it is the best toolkit supported by Emacs.
Maybe it's also a question of secure communications library, but I'm no
expert on GnuTLS and its integration.
