The answer to these questions lies in these lines of Stefan's patch,
which is extremely easy to read:
+(define-derived-mode emacs-lisp-data-mode prog-mode "Emacs-Lisp-Data"
+ "Major mode for buffers holding data written in Emacs Lisp syntax."
+ :group 'lisp
+ (lisp-mode-variables nil nil 'elisp)
+ (setq-local electric-quote-string t)
+ (setq imenu-case-fold-search nil))

I think you've missed at least a couple (aside from the original one)

What exactly do you mean by "fragmentation"? What is the thing that you
can do now that you believe you will not be able to do later?
