I often try C-s in Firefox and find the result quite irritating cause
it takes some time for the file save dialog to appear.

With the region hilighted you may make those mistakes more often of course.

On the other side with cua-mode on you have to learn using C-S-c and
C-S-x when the region is hilighted. This may be hard in the beginning.
Personally, because I use Viper, I have only been hit by C-x here, but
it happened to me many times. (Maybe since I tend to use computers
when I am tired.)

BTW, is there any strong reason not to bind C-z to `undo' by default in Emacs?
