It would be nice to update the info at runtime, but IMO it is beyond
what is reasonable to ask.

This feature works on the pretense that if a command has a real
potential for being used outside of its mode, it shall not be annotated
as mode-specific. The scenario you described indicates that the
application realm of the command is open-ended.

In the future the system can be expanded so a mode can declare that it
uses specific commands (or all of them) from some other mode, but that
is not required now for the filtering to be effective.
