Does what you suggest for the manual really work? Calling setopt in
this case modified the keymap of text-mode, and that has a global
effect.
I really don't think buffer-local tricks like this one belong to the
Emacs user manual. Users who have such a need will have to read the
code and figure this out for themselves. The purpose of documenting
this in the user manual is to make the feature discoverable; once
discovered, tweaking it should be easy, and doesn't need to be
described in the user manual.
