this is a good point, Rob. It's going to be a bit of a struggle,  but 
keeping the power of Emacs, while allowing a "modern" interface is going 
to be a trick.

Even though I am an Emacs user, I don't want to be using Emacs-style key 
bindings in my editor -- I want to use binding that match all the other 
pas I run as much as possible.

IIUC, you're building Peppy to support multiple key bindings option, in 
which case, I think Chris is right -- OpenFileDialog and OpenFileWith 
MiniBuffer are two different actions, and while some folks would want 
one bound to a key binding, and the other a menu, others will want the 
key binding and menu to both bring up a Dialog.
