We don't know what "most people" will want, except what we heard during the poll. And no one said anything like that there. FWIW, I'm using show-paren-mode for eons as a global setting in all my modes and buffers, and have nothing negative to report. So evidently at least for some this is not as annoying as it could seem. > Does anybody see a way to enable it by default in non-special buffers > only, but not explicitly switching it off in special-mode buffers for > those that want it? Mode hooks is the usual method. And yes, I'm talking about personal customizations. Nothing wrong with that.
