No, this issue is common to _any_ implementation of tagging commands
with relevant mode, not just the implementation via the interactive
spec.

I don't think this problem is real, because the idea is that commands
which are relevant only to a _single_ mode will be tagged by that
mode. Commands which are useful in several modes will remain
untagged.
