Note that with my latest patch you can essentially treat Enriched mode
as a second major mode.  You are guaranteed that it runs _after_ the
major mode, even if the user changes the major mode with Enriched mode
enabled.  Hence you know that the major mode will not override any
setting that is essential for proper functioning of Enriched mode.

I do not believe that there is any requirement that Enriched mode be
compatible with every single major mode.  That would be completely
unrealistic and is currently already by no means the case.

Sincerely,

Luc.
