We should also ask ourselves if this is not "too much". I think it
is, since a clear indication of dynamic binding, with a face that
makes it stand out, already exists on the mode line. I think this is
enough. It is not Emacs's business to force users into something they
don't want to do. Emacs never did that, and should not do that in the
future.
