I think you are underestimating yourself and maybe my view of you when
you write like above.

I try to.

That is good, but I think you are misunderstanding me a bit. Maybe I was
misunderstanding the context in which I answered. The problem I think we
where talking about was the magic-mode-alist. My concern is as usual new
users (I hope many new users will try Emacs 22) and I think
magic-mode-alist is mostly in the way, confusing them.
This particular problem is however not a very, very big problem. In any
case I appreciate constructive answers to the problem.
