Currently dired.el defines:
(define-key dired-mode-map "\M-g" 'dired-goto-file)
and dired-x.el defines:
(define-key dired-mode-map "\M-g" 'dired-goto-file)
(define-key dired-mode-map "\M-G" 'dired-goto-subdir)
I recall I proposed two variants for dired-goto-file:
`M-g f' (and `M-g M-f') and `M-g g' (and `M-g M-g').
And you agreed to `M-g f' (and `M-g M-f'). But it's
not clear what to do with \M-G bound to dired-goto-subdir?
I also proposed to make the key binding `M-g f' global,
but this could be implemented ATR (after the release).
