emacs users who are hostile to you configuring things, aren't really getting the point IMO :)

  They are hostile to me proposing a better (IMO) default

    It depends on what you mean by default and whose default. You can change your own defaults quite easily! Changing the default setup with emacs that has been shipping for > 30 years is tough. Getting nginx to ignore a well established pattern by a well established editor seems equally sensible and perhaps more doable. Yes?

      By default I mean whatever you get by doing `sudo apt-get install emacs-nox` I disagree about "tough". Emacs has changed for the better in new releases quite drastically in the last years in my experience.

  The list of things emacs users don't get seems to get longer per day so I'm not surprised at the reaction OP got, just disappointed (but I still think this is on nginx more than emacs - unless they really mean foo~ and not .foo~ )

    > The list of things emacs users don't get seems to get... There are a ton of Emacs users, and it's doesn't make much sense to talk about them as a group like that, no more than if I were to say, "The list of things Windows users don't get..."
