	   In Emacs 21.3, Text mode did not override the default value of
	   require-final-newline.  In current CVS, it does.  Is there a
	   reason for that?

I think we did discuss that question leading up to my decision
to introduce mode-require-final-newline.  However, there is
probably more discussion in August or September 2002.
