Good idea, but we're already heading this way in general with
"behaviors." Unification we don't have, but the mechanism would allow
arbitrary unifications, I think, just as custom allows you to "set"
variables that don't exist or are a group of related variables.. And
the "recreate buffer somehow" is the main (current) point of the
"behavior feature."
So AFAICT, we can get the immediate effect of the new features through
our general mechanism. Why reduplicate it ad hoc?
