No, I proposed to use the "predicate function" method (which already
exists).

Then the downside is "it's not readable". Or editable, really.

At this point you could say that we need to support lambas anyway (ok), and if people use them, we can use it for this purpose too.

But it seems to me that, by not supporting lambdas so far, over the couple of years since its introduction, project-kill-buffer-conditions has kind of proven its minimal DSL to be viable.

And if by having the 'major-mode eq' matcher we manage to avoid the use of lambdas in 99%+ use cases, then that's a win for usability.
