Attached is a proof-of-concept patch which addresses bugs #71404,
#71405, and #71406
I'll take care of that if/when the design is agreed upon.
The patch rewrites string-edit-mode as a minor mode.
It utilizes an overlay for the edit prompt (to persist across
major mode changes) and prevents the prompt separator from being
deleted.
It persists the buffer-local editing data so that the major mode
can be changed and the edit can still be completed.
It uses #'ignore as the default abort function if none is
provided.
