I actually think that `C-c C-m' is easier to type the `M-o'.  From a
touch-typist point of view, it's not the *length* of the key sequence,
so much as how easy the finger movements involved are.

`C-c C-m' is relatively simple: hold down `control', then hit `c' and
`m', which is fast because they on altermate hands.  At least for me,
the `alt' key is a more awkward key to reach than `control'.

Also, it has the advantage of having an `m' in it somewhere.  Of
course, we wouldn't want to start a trend . . . .
