I'd say we add optional etags compatibility stuff, but make our bindings the default.
Agreed.
To really make etags users happy requires a lot of extra touches that I don't like myself, e.g. always prompting for the tag. People with well-trained etags reflexes seem to always do `M-. RET' to find a definition, so with our non-prompting interface they'd jump to the definition and then accidentally insert a newline. (Seen this a lot with friends using Distel, which has the same tags bindings as SLIME.)
So let's go our own current way by default and support etags-style bindings/prompting as a configuration option for people whose fingers are already trained.
