Really glad to see Emacs conventions being respected.
How about just a section of documentation ("if you prefer the old
keybindings...") as Emacs config is simply text, after all. It
could simply be copy-pasted into their init file.
That way has two advantages:
1. Does not pollute the repository with a "one time use"
function.
2. Gives newbies (some of which I expect may never have used
Emacs before) a very good and easy example which they can use
as a basis for their own further customization.
Taking such an approach, I think, is much more in line with "the
Emacs way" of doing things.
Perhaps with an appropriate version bump (not even sure we are
following semantic versioning, as this will be a brand new and
separate repository).
What do you guys think?
Cheers,

This sounds good to me.
Shall I submit a PR to patch both the keybindings and (as described above)
the documentation?
If I hear nothing, I'll eventually assume the answer is "yes", but once
there's been a discussion I always prefer to get an explicit nod first if I
can.
Best regards,
