Actually, it doesn't just switch major modes, it does a lot of work
putting variables on text properties so that it can try to get
everything right.  It is useful for here documents, although I don't
know why it would be less useful for a shell script as a here
document in a shell script.

This is a problem.  For most modes it doesn't matter, but for CC mode
it can cause weirdness.  That's an ongoing problem, but narrowing
doesn't help, since CC mode widens before it parses the buffer.
