Hi,

you already know that C-u C-x = lists text properties at point?
The mode-line might not be such a superb place to show them, the list
can be quite longish.

Anyway, in your code, the :eval construct should evaluate to a string,
e.g.

(setq-default
 mode-line-format
 (cons '(:eval (format "%s" (text-properties-at (point))))
       (default-value 'mode-line-format)))

Note that the mode-line isn't necessarily recomputed after every
command.

Michael.
