Yes, but if it's set via electric-layout-rules, to what value will this
variable be set in e.g. js-mode?
If it'll include what's there currently, '((?\; . after) (?\{ . after)
(?\} . before)), then to get the desired behavior I described previously
(NOT to insert a newline after I just typed `{', or any other
character), I'd have to modify it again in js-mode-hook.
IOW, turning on electric-layout-mode would turn on all
electric-layout-related behaviors defined for a given major mode. Are we
willing to remove electric newlines after `;', `{' and `}', by default,
from any major mode where one of those might conceivably be followed by
some character other than newline?
Speaking of cc-mode, I don't really program in C (though I'd like to
continue learning it at some point), but if I did, I'm not sure I'd want
the electric-layout-mode behavior there, but
electric-pair-newline-between-pairs-rule would be useful.

Yes. And similarly, if we have a separate minor mode, it will be
disabled (maybe via some -inhibit variable) by some major modes.
