That's what I do, too, but it doesn't help much.  I frequently find
myself hitting `C-y M-y' in Eclipse to paste text that I have cut before
the last cut.  But then I have to face the fact that cut&paste is not
kill&yank...

Remapping keys doesn't help much if the underlying concepts aren't the
same.
