As I have mentioned before I have a library majmodpri.el in nXhtml
that sorts major modes according to user given priorities to them.
This is just distributed with nXhtml because I need a mechanism for
this there. If you want to edit a html file you may have a long list
of major and multi major modes to choose from.

Also please consider that if multi major modes are used then it is
perhaps not possible to use the same major modes in chunks as you
normally do for a whole buffer.
