For sure, I’m heading straight to Emacs hell for this.

Apparently, there are a lot of Emacs purists in the world who, over the years, have learned to type such complex key sequences as C-x r t M-. C-c C-p fluently. I'm not one of them. And when I tried to figure out how to customize it for myself, the web forums were full of comments saying it wasn't a good idea.

Interesting idea! I appreciate the org/plaintext driven approach, not that different from wm config bindings.

I like the idea of behavior (in this case keybindings) updating from documentation/data changes without needing to edit the code, tho there are tradeoffs and added complexities to mitigate
