Because I found that I often wanted to do quick tests in text-mode by
typing `C-x b a'. Your question suggests suggests that this
customization is ill-advised; if so, why (other than the problem that my
OP described, which I still would like to know if it causes problems for
doc-view always to get the fallback mode via normal-mode rather than the
"previous" major mode)? And if it is ill-advised, then major-mode
shouldn't be customizable, should it?
