Then again, `C-z` is a standard binding for `undo`.  ;-)

It's true that there's some logic to use C-z, C-x, and C-c for standard
prefix keys.  Yet, I think this can only make sense if we have a clear
idea of what kinds of bindings we'd put into this prefix.

I agree that the binding of `f2` to `2C-command` can be dropped.
Not sure what to bind it to instead, OTOH.
