Users who asked sometimes looked for info in the Elisp manual but didn't find it. Please consider adding an index entry that might help users get there when looking up local variable information. Dunno what the best such entry/entries might be. Perhap something like: "local variables, killed automatically" or "local variables, killed by major modes". Anyway, you get the idea. Here is one such question: http://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/7391/105.
