Re: propose adding Icicles to Emacs

[Richard Stallman]

    However, it also sounds like there are a bunch of other unrelated
    features, e.g., "Multi-commands" (what does this have to do with
    completion?).  [If these really are unrelated to main purpose, why are
    they part of the same package?]

That is a very important point.  It is quite common that a user
implements, in a single Lisp program, various features which he
likes but which do not really belong together.  In such a case,
to "install the package" is not really the right thing to consider.

What we should do instead is consider each of the features separately,
and decide what to do with it.
