That sounds useful.

Hm.  Unfortunately, compile.el (ab)uses the minor-mode-alist for this
stuff, so we only get the minor mode menu up instead of being able to
put actions on these elements?

(or (assq 'compilation-in-progress minor-mode-alist)
    (setq minor-mode-alist (cons '(compilation-in-progress " Compiling")
                                 minor-mode-alist)))

I'm not sure what the right way to fix this would be...  perhaps stop
pretending it's a minor mode?  But where would be put the lighter then?
