If they aren't working, where are the bug reports about that?  We only
have bug reports about CC mode so far.

I'm against such changes, as you well know.  With Emacs, "sane" is
mostly defined as the status quo, because Emacs "mostly works".  Any
significant change in such a low-level facility is, therefore,
"insane", IMNSHO, unless the problem is also general.  And we don't
have evidence that the problem is global.
