I support this change. But we should make sure that the advanced
functionality that Ibuffer offers isn't confusing. When I first saw Ibuffer
some many years ago, I was very confused about "filters" and
"filter groups". I think the top level menus "Tools", "Operate" and
"Buffers", should all be grouped under some kind of "Buffer management"
or "Buffer list" top level entry.
Also, we should have pre-configured "filter groups", like
group-per-project, which we can probably do with project.el
(maybe this is already a thing, but I still have custom code for it).
Idiot-proof, example-rich documentation in the Emacs manual
is probably also a very good thing to have.
