Allow me to butt in this subthread a little. Your other points aside - 
several of them definitely valid - there already is an inherent 
asymmetry between c/c++ ts modes and cc-mode in that we give deference 
to the latter in our default file->mode mappings, which I wouldn't 
expect to change in any short or medium term.

So if we give a little back to ts modes on another level (and assuming 
user opt-in), that seems fair enough.
