I am sure that emacs can program the keyboard to its liking. There is no need to impose a standard on the rest of the world just because of emacs.
But I am not sure that Ian meant to proscribe Backspace -> DEL. Seems to me that he wants an app to respect the "stty erase" setting. I think that is a wise thing to do considering that Backspace -> DEL is hardwired in the linux kernel by Linus. The trouble is that we have to probably make some apps adapt to "stty erase" instead of having a compiled in setting.
