Bad NEWS, Emacs

I have been using emacs since probably 94. This change, without a toggle from userspace to disable it is a kick in the pants. I will follow your fork until (if) they come around.

OpenSource working as intended, no?

Yup. Great isn't it when the system works as intended.

Assuming any particular commit in git represents the eventual state of a release seems foolhardy.

That's not the author's point. They did try to improve the behavior in a future commit and were shot down. Hard it seems. So were any requests from others to change this before release.

I someone is to fork Emacs its because of getting proper UI integration or multithreading.

This is just a neglectable, whimsical step. Sorry.

What Emacs needs is the nvim/vim Schisma.
