> What could be done:

> 1. Change `delete-char' to delete the active region (might need a poll
> since I recall some disagreements about this default).

> 2. Bind <kp-delete> to the same command `delete-forward-char'
> as for <delete>.

> 3. Add `delete-char' back to delsel.el since typing `C-d' is handy
> anyway to delete the region.

Shouldn't `kp-delete' be remapped to `delete'?
