There are occasiona when it is useful, for added flexibility,
to move some function from C to Lisp.  However, stability
is an important goal for Emacs, so we should not even try
to move large amounts of code to Lisp just for the sake
of moving code to Lisp.

The rate at whic we have added features already causes significant
instability.
