Indeed.  I actually find it weird to want to disable shift-select-mode
globally as well.

Could you explain why you want to disable-it buffer-locally?

Agreed.  It's got pretty low priority for me, tho.

Can you explain how/why?

> I never use shift-select-mode myself,

Neither do I, but I've always kept it enabled since it appeared, and
I never bumped into it, so it seems pretty harmless in "normal" use.

Yes, I think you're in a very small minority here.  I think it'll be
much easier to make your minor mode work with shift-select-mode.
