I might be misunderstanding what you mean, but I don't want to change
the architecture, I just want the user to set their own as a
customization option in a major mode. The function will just return the
same stuff as it does now, but with a function as an available option
that will be a little more flexible.  See [0] for an example.  The user
can just set [1] to change the indent style.  A quick workaround could
be that each major mode just does this:
```
(setq-local treesit-simple-indent-rules
            (funcall c-ts-mode-indent-rule-function))
```
But that is a little less nice :-)
