This may be a horribly naive question, but why doesn't this mechanism just
use the `provide'd symbols? Is there really much need to use
`eval-after-load' with libraries that are considered so basic (i.e.,
automatically loaded) that they don't provide anything? I would think
that things like `emacs-startup-hook' would be sufficient for that.
It just seems eminently clear to me what
(eval-after-provide 'dired (unload-feature 'dired))
intends to do, and how to define it precisely.
