I feel the severity can be downgraded for Etch. Hmm, tentatively agreed; this is ultimately a reference to policy 9.8 defining how keys should be understood, and this is primarily about standardizing terminal behavior so that applications know how to interact. It does diminish the quality of implementation for an application (or emacs mode) to unnecessarily diverge from these rules, but I don't think a single emacs mode handling delete differently is a reason to remove all of xemacs21-packages from the release.
