For instance? Solutions as adding hooks/functions for to allow
mode-specific semantics for standard commands
(e.g. `fill-paragraph-function') are better for those cases, I think,
but they have far higher cost (they must be added by the emacs
developer), and are not really so nice for minor modes -- IOW, it
doesn't really achieve the same thing.
