Typing C-g after C-c in a buffer editing a Lisp file will get a *sldb* buffer to show up:

Well, C-c C-g is supposed to do that. You are free to rebind the key. I for one quite like C-c C-g. If it should be the default binding is another question. Opinions?

I am a little annoyed by it. I typically type "C-c", realize I am not ready to do a command yet, and hit C-g to cancel. I'm accustomed to C-g being a safe way to stop what I'm doing in emacs. Triggering a Lisp interrupt isn't what I have in mind.

In what situations is it useful? Perhaps there's a new mode of usage I could learn...
