I always bind different keys for the prefix anyway (M-m other-window,
M-M other-frame); we could just define the functions and not choose a
default binding.

Or use C-x t; that's free.

Yes, why don't we do that?  Juri?

I like it, 'C-x t' has nice mnemonics, and on a Qwerty keyboard
't' is located near '6', so 'C-x t' is not harder to type than 'C-x 6',
but let's hear more opinions before changing 'C-x 6' to 'C-x t'.

Agreed.  How about changing to "C-x t" if no one brings up serious
objections within a week?

"We could just define the functions and not choose
a default binding."

Yes, that's preferable to sacrificing `C-x t' as a
default binding.

Define the commands.  Define keys for them in a
keymap.  But don't bind the keymap to any prefix
key by default.

sm> But users can decide to use C-x 3, C-x 6, C-x 5

Yes, let users decide.

Define a keymap variable, to make it easy to use a
prefix key, but don't bind any prefix key by default.

What's wrong with that?

jl>> but let's hear more opinions before changing
jl>> 'C-x 6' to 'C-x t'.

How about serious supporting arguments?
Have there been any?

FWIW, I don't like the idea.  There's nothing
"free" about `C-x t'.  It doesn't have a default
binding; that's all.  And that's a good thing.

Let users and libraries have it, without them
needing to override standard Emacs default
bindings.  Likewise, other `C-x' keys (`C-x 6'
etc.).

(Just one opinion.)

I enabled ‘C-x t’ in master (in addition to ‘C-x 6’) to allow everyone
to try a new keybinding during the next week of transition period
before removing ‘C-x 6’.

Thanks.  I think we should adjust our documentation to this change, at
the end of the week at the latest.

So I removed ‘C-x 6’ in favor of ‘C-x t’ and adjusted the documentation.
