I don't have the time now to follow this thread. I would just like to say that I, for one, do use some finder.el features. If those become available only in some other form then I will try to adjust my code to that form. But I would not like to see them disappear altogether. In particular, I use `finder-commentary'. I use it, for example, to add a button to *Help* buffer content (e.g. `C-h m') that opens the corresponding Commentary section in Finder mode. Here is a typical example: (define-button-type 'bookmarkp-commentary-button :supertype 'help-xref 'help-function #'(lambda () (finder-commentary "bookmark+")) 'help-echo "mouse-2, RET: Bookmark+ documentation") ... (help-insert-xref-button "[Doc]" 'bookmarkp-commentary-button)
