(And this is the way it works in nxhtml-mode currently.) This is not something that major modes ought to change. If we adopt this for Emacs generally, as _perhaps_ we should, then that mode should do it too. Otherwise, when we install it, we should change nxhtml-mode to turn that off (by default, at least).
