In a bag you can carry many tools and you can move -- to GNU/Linux.
The Gnu-horns tells where you are going.

The portability is important, but I don't think it is the main feature
of Emacs. So I prefer "tools" or "editing tool" as a metaphor rather
than "portability". If just some talented artist would draw a swiss army
knife with the gnu horns on it ... :-)
One of the main feature of a swiss army knife is perhaps also the portability ;-)

But I do not believe it is possible to make a 16x16 swiss army knife with gnu horns ... -- or rather: I do not believe it is possible to recognize it ...
