    Stefen's suggestion, to do the same as modes defined `define-minor-mode',
    and print a message if (interactive-p) is true, seems reasonable.

Is interactive-p the right method?  Usually it is the wrong predicate,
because it returns nil for commands run from a keyboard macro, and in
most cases those commands should behave like commands run directly
from the keyboard.  For this specific purpose, though, that behavior
might be the right behavior.  Does everyone agree this is the
predicate to test?

If so, would someone like to modify these modes?
