While it is fun to customize, the Emacs has 100s of mode and there is lots of customization. I like to find popular choices, so it makes my life easier and I can spend time productively. It could be about hooks, registers, buffers, keybindings,bookmarks etc..

If such a thing does not exist, I am still happy to customize in my way.
