Hi,
I think it's generally expected that mode commands (both major and minor)
are reasonably idempotent, i.e. calling them twice should have the same
effects as calling them once (unless using 'toggle, of course). However, I
couldn't find this requirement in the manual, should it be added to the
"Modes" section?
Philipp
