JL> This is already documented in (info "(emacs) Specifying File Variables"):
JL> If `mode' is used to set a major mode, it should be the first
JL> "variable" in the list. Otherwise, the entries that precede it will
JL> usually be ignored, since most modes kill all local variables as part
JL> of their initialization.
JL> It makes no sense to duplicate this information in the docstrings of
JL> every variable that may be used in Local Variables.
OK, then the "responsible" thing to do would be to emit a warning if detected:
"mode used after others, see info page...".
