> What about some kind of enable-minor-mode function?
That's what a some minor modes already do, for example
`turn-on-eldoc-mode', `turn-on-follow-mode', or
`turn-on-gnus-dired-mode'. For some of them there's also a turn-off
command.
Maybe that's a good convention. If so, then probably things like
`define-minor-mode' should generate those functions automatically.
This approach defines functions in a profligate way.
It would be much better to do something simpler and more elegant.
