Yes, it should.

I don't like these key bindings -- there currently is no `C-c 4' or
`C-c 5' keymaps.  I would prefer them to be put onto `C-x 4' and `C-x 5'.
Suggestions?

My suggestion (and how it will appear in the next Killer B if not
overruled) is `C-x 4 C-f' and `C-x 5 C-f'.

Yes!  This must work with subrs and variables. I really, really want
both subrs and variables to work the same way.  Subrs are going to
require minor cpp magic (if they don't work except if running in
place, that is acceptable).  Variables need to have source information 
recorded.

Thanks for writing the code, Jens.  This is fairly close to something
that I have been dreaming about having for some time now.
