I'm including Bob Rogers in this reply as he is really the "M-." guru :)

Bob, what are your thoughts on the "M-," binding? When I did the key
binding revisions, "M-." & "M-," were optional bindings for
edit-definitions-lisp & next-definition-lisp and a number of people
wanted them to be the default bindings. Do you feel they are close
enough to the conventional usage to remain on "M-."/"M-," or should they
be moved to completely new bindings?
