Is it possible at least to make this forward-compatible to support
such a predicate in future?  To enable ts-modes only in some buffers
currently requires first to enable non-ts-mode, then conditionally ts-mode:

(add-hook 'find-file-hook
          (lambda ()
            (when (and (eq major-mode 'c-mode)
                       ;; Unless in internal buffers:
                       (not (string-prefix-p " " (buffer-name))))
              (c-ts-mode))))

With a predicate in major-mode-remap-alist it would immediately
enable the required mode:

(setq major-mode-remap-alist
      '((c-mode . (lambda () (not (string-prefix-p " " (buffer-name))))
                c-ts-mode)))

Such a predicate would be useful in many other cases.  For example,
by default ".pl" is assigned to perl-mode, but this would help to
reassign it to prolog-mode using some heuristics:

(setq major-mode-remap-alist
      '((perl-mode . (lambda () (string-match-p "src/prolog" buffer-file-name))
                prolog-mode)))
