bug#17644: 24.4.50; provide access to all mode-line lighters (e.g. those from C code) |

Elisp users can modify mode-line lighters for a major or a minor mode,
using `mode-name' and `minor-mode-alist'. But they cannot modify (or
even remove) other lighters that are added by Emacs C code. Please
enhance Emacs by making this possible (from Lisp).
For example, when the buffer is narrowed, the lighter `Narrow' appears.
It is neither a major-mode lighter nor a minor-mode lighter. And there
is no way for a programmer to modify it from Lisp.
Please (a) document all such abnormal/extraneous lighters together,
somewhere in the Elisp manual and (b) provide a means for users to
access and modify them using Lisp.
