I agree to whole message. I have written EmacsW32 just for this above.
Much as I like the idea of prepackaged distributions for normal,
non-developer users, the problem I see with many "big" Emacs projects
(like TinyTools, CEDET, JDEE, etc) is that they are much of an
all-or-nothing. You install one of them, you are no longer in Emacs,
but someone's pet idea of what Emacs should look like (yeah, even if
they have a ton or two of customization options). Nothing bat per se,
but I already have my pet Emacs and we've learnt to live with each
other, thanks ;-)
A very, very wild idea, a save excursion for loading so to say: could
all the setting and defining functions be defadviced during loading of
such packages in such a way that they saved old states of symbols in a
list called say "previous-state" where there are entries for "CEDET"
etc. Then you could just use this list to reset the values. Perhaps?
