It is a bummer that it hacks its bindings into lisp-mode instead of being a minor-mode. On the other hand, I've had some hassle with slime being a minor-mode - clobbering keybindings of more important minor modes (in 'emerge' buffers). Do you know any fix for that?

I wonder if this is our of emerge's fault. It seems that emerge only puts itself into minor-modes-list to get an entry in the modeline and it doesn't use minor-mode-map-alist, but some custom local-map. This would explain why the SLIME bindings override the emerge keys, since key lookup always looks at the minor-mode-map-alist before searching in the local-map. Do the problems persist if you turn SLIME off?
