Right now, Emacs translates from <backspace> to DEL on some keyboards.
I was proposing to translate from DEL to <backspace>, instead. I
think that this does not remove features. (Just to clarify.)
But it would be a big change, since a lot of keymaps have to be
changed to use <backspace> rather than DEL, and I guess that you
wouldn't approve of this. After all, the current mechanism works
quite well.
I hope that Kim can live with this :-)
