That's a better solution than prompting people to make permanent those
minor-modes themselves, via some new generic method for preserving any
minor mode.
I can still see a reason to have something like a `:local-variables'
keyword for any mode definition, minor or major- to help `desktop
save/recover' properly handle the buffer state. Doubtless there would
be yet more uses I haven't thought of.
