How do we make sure stuff like "foo(1)" doesn't cause a lot of false
positives when applied in modes whose idea of what that means is very
different from Man-mode?
More importantly, if this stuff is supposed to be global, how do we
provide the users with a context-menu-mode which seamlessly does TRT
without asking the user to invest too much effort into populating
his/her menus? I'm not aware of any popular application out there
which expects the users to customize context menus before they work as
expected, i.e. show relevant information in relevant places without
including a lot of irrelevant menu items.
