I'm not sure it's a bug. My guess is that it was by design (for whatever reason). Perhaps Eli or someone else can enlighten us. I kinda doubt it was an oversight. All of those bindings are together, and the person who changed the Meta bindings likely searched for `forward-word', not "[M-right]" or "(kbd "M-")"... In `bindings.el': (global-set-key [M-right] 'right-word) (define-key esc-map [right] 'forward-word) (global-set-key [M-left] 'left-word) (define-key esc-map [left] 'backward-word)
