I think that would have been preferable, but since this is both a user
option and a command, renaming them will be prohibitively expensive
(i.e., it'll affect a lot of users, since presumably many of them will
have `fringe-mode' settings in their .emacs files).

So instead I've noted (in both doc strings) that these aren't modes.
