Menus are good for learning the functionality, and you have them just as
much in Gnu emacs as in xemacs. You can even use them absent a windowing
system! Text selection with a mouse is a different thing. Sometimes it's
more convenient, sometimes it's not.

But I agree with your general point - it's often quicker to keep your
hands in position, which is where knowing keybinds for everything
scores.
