There was a really bizarre program, "rk -- the reactive keyboard", from the
early 1990's, that did prediction of general user typing. It didn't work too
well for emacs, but it was some kind of wonder to behold when it started
completing your shell commands for you. A quick search (via google) shows
that it's still around.

Anyhow, you might look at some of the papers associated with rk for
measurement and analysis ideas.
