But one big slow scan (and how slow it is actually depends on a particular major mode) followed by responsive editing sounds much better than what we've had before.
Indeed. But then the question is: is it possible to do that scan while opening the file, before it becomes editable? It is way better to wait a few seconds more while the file is being opened than to wait before two basic motion commands when the file is already opened.
So I would recommend against trying to solve this part right now.
It doesn't only solve the syntax-ppss problem, it also makes flyspell-mode usable in such files, for example.
