I agree. If you look at EmacsWiki for example you can see that a good number of users gets confused by the mode selection caused by that magic-mode-alist overrides auto-mode-alist.

I think that should be reversed before release. Didn't we discuss that before?

The only real drawback I can see is that magic-mode-alist does not deserve it's name that much if we do that change. 8-)
