Let's step back, maybe.

From multiple discussions, over a certain period of time, mostly here 
in emacs-devel, I have arrived at an impression that there exists a 
general desire to have global bindings for project functions, in 
"default" Emacs, without customization.

And that the 'C-x p' prefix is both unoccupied and looks logical to use 
for that purpose.

What do you think about that?

As an aside, I'd like to do a similar thing for Flymake, with 
Flycheck-inspired prefix of 'C-c !' a bit later.
