Well. People could still put (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist ...)
statements into their ~/.emacs.
The problem that I, personally, see with inhibit-default-init is that
it's an all-or-nothing thing. There is no way to say "I like most of
what default.el does, but please skip this setting here".
That's why I my site-start.el contains a lot of functions, each
setting up a specific package. Then my users can pick and choose.
(Or choose and pick?)
