I agree. If you look at EmacsWiki for example you can see that a good number of users gets confused by the mode selection caused by that magic-mode-alist overrides auto-mode-alist. I think that should be reversed before release. Didn't we discuss that before? I really don't like the idea of changing what magic-mode-alist does. Especially now. It would be safer to introduce another variable which checks the magic number but gives precedence to auto-mode-alist. Then we could move specific elements to that new variable; we would not have to change the meaning of _all_ of the elements. That is safer.
