Part of my dive into zsh is I changed my keyboard layout.  Leaving out
all the details, I moved my "meta" key from the command key to the
option key (I'm on a Mac).  That has ground my emacs using to be very
slow and awkward but I'm slowly adapting.  I wanted the change because
I wanted e.g. back-word to be the same in emacs and the Terminal.
