It's simple enough.  However, is it good enough?  This looks like yet
another incompatible way of dealing with it, not much more.

What you propose is the following:

     Get rid of the define-keys for delete in all XEmacs modes,
     including the third-party modes that aren't (and will never be)
     under our control.  Instead of the perfectly valid key
     definitions, use a new, incompatible function/hook.

I think I prefer the translation hacks.  On the other hand, I may have
somehow misunderstood your change.
