I don't use emacs, so I don't know how complex keyboard shortcuts you may
need. In LO you can assign any function to almost any combination of Ctrl,
Shift, Alt and keyboard keys. But you can't do complex sequences like "ctrl+x,
then f (with or without ctrl)". LO may simply not be sufficient enough.

How about a libre office mode for emacs? :)
I can imagine that developers would be more than happy to include it in some
future release, but I don't think anyone would devote time to do so (it would
be really low on priorities list). So if you really need it, perhaps you have
to write it yourself.

Anyway, you should ask about it on developers' mailing list.
What type of documents are you typing?

"emacs" seems to me that it is used for mainframe programming editors, not word processors. I could be wrong about that, if there is a specific word processor that uses the "emacs" key shortcuts withing their control/navigation system. It has been many years since I used an editor that used those [or vi/vim] commands. When I do the editing for programming, I use Kate or gedit for Linux and NoteTab++ for Windows. I find they are much easier to use than the original text/program editors that used vi/vim/emacs editing controls instead of mouse/menu controls. Well I got spoiled after all those years on a dumb terminal or typing punch cards. I prefer a "window" environment like GNOME2 gives you over Terminal use that works a lot like what I had to do with the mainframes I worked on. Well Win XP/pro is nice as well, if I have to use a non-Linux system.

So the question is what you are doing for the typing?

I know that if you have had years worth of finger-memory for using the keyboard shortcuts, that is is hard to get use to using the mouse/menu option and the word processor's internal shortcuts like Ctrl-Alt-f to open the Find/Replace option[s] or Ctrl-A for select all. I do not remember these shortcuts much. Each package seems to have their own definations beyond Ctrl-x, -c, and -v. Some change Ctrl-c and -z as well.
