Some of this potential conflicts are resolved by the key binding
conventions:
(info "(elisp) Key Binding Conventions")
But there is nothing there that help for conflicts between minor modes.
The only thing I can think of that can help is giving some way to tell
which minor mode should come first, ie some priority handling.
