Wait a minute, hasn't M-; been comment-dwim for a _long_ time...?
Also I seem to recall that the no-region behavior of M-; is _ancient_
(even predating comment-dwim?), and not all that obscure, so probably
isn't the sort of thing to be messed with at least by default...

[BTW, one thing that annoys me about message-mode is that it rebinds
M-; to comment-region -- I often want to _remove_ a level of citation,
and expect M-; to work "normally" (like comment-dwim) ... but it
doesn't, it acts in oppositely from comment-dwim in that situation
:( ]
