After opening enriched.txt and running any kind of code using the
`font-lock-add-keywords` function (for example whitespace-mode or
hl-todo-mode), the enriched highlighting is gone.  Is this a bug or
intentional?  If it's intentional, is there some way for the code using
`font-lock-add-keywords` to detect this condition, other than checking
for the presence of enriched-mode?  Alternatively, is there a
recommended way to add highlighting of keywords that's compatible with
enriched-mode?

I think enriched-mode, like any other mode that puts its own faces on
chunks of text by means other than font-lock, is fundamentally
incompatible with font-lock.  It's basically the same problem as if
you tried to use put-text-property in *scratch* to put some face
property on some text in the buffer: the face won't show until you
turn off font-lock.  That's because the first thing font-lock does is
wipe out all the faces in the buffer.

Any way that uses put-text-property, add-text-properties, etc. without
using font-lock will do.  You can even try that manually via the
facemenu-set-* commands (or via the Edit->Text Properties menu from
the menu bar).

Thanks for the clarification.  This doesn't really help me though, I want to
adjust my existing font-lock using code so that it detects when it would wipe
out said text properties enriched-mode set up.  It doesn't appear to be
sufficient to just check whether `font-lock-mode` is non-nil, if I do that
inside the example enriched.txt file, it's set to `t` for some reason.  Again,
what would the correct check be here?

Hm, I've done that for non-font-lock scenarios before, but in this case I
really need font-lock's ability to search for strings and apply fontification
to them, so this isn't really an option.  Looking for other examples in the
Emacs sources I've found uses of `jit-lock-register`.

I think you want to look at font-lock-defaults.

Ah, I guess I  misunderstood what kind of solutions you are looking
for, sorry.

If you want to keep font-lock in effect, then indeed jit-lock-register
is one feature to look at.  But there are two others:
font-lock-extra-managed-props and the font-lock-face property.  I hope
one of these will allow you to come up with a solution.

Thanks, checking for that did the trick.  I've fixed my own mode and someone
else's that way.

That would be better, but considerably harder.  For now I'm happy with checking
`font-lock-defaults`.  Feel free to close this bug report.
