It seems that modes get chosen by auto-mode-alist rather than
interpreter-mode-alist, even if the file is executable and has a
magic number. I feel this to be wrong!
Maybe you're right, but I'd like to think about it. Could you
describe the case in which this caused trouble for you?
Likewise I keep stumbling over XML files, with all kinds of misleading
suffixes. It would be way cool if any file that starts with <?xml be
automatically in xml-mode or html-mode.
What suffixes do these XML files have, and why do they have them?
