I agree in principle. And since fontification of chunks can already be
done reliably enough (if not with best performance), I think indentation
function conventions would be more important. Shall we start with
collecting cases?
So far I have two problems without obvious solutions:
1) js-mode uses (widen) at the beginning of js-indent-line, and then calls
(syntax-ppss).
2) sgml-indent-line calls sgml-parse-tag-backward, which does
(re-search-backward "[<>]"), finds "<" and performs simple regexp check.
Thus, <% if a < 3 %> breaks indentation on following lines, until first
closing tag.
So it's 3 built-in functions as candidates for special interaction
with new syntax-table value.

Did you mean to write "C code" in the first sentence?
As far as I can see, enhanced (forward-comment) won't help much with
indentation.
And crossing two boundaries won't necessarily mean that we're in a chunk
in the same mode (or we're limited to supporting only two modes in the
same buffer), so that means syntax-table values can't be trivial.
Cons cell (mode-above . mode-below), and related code will need
to consider movement direction?
