It turns out that while not well-defined, it's useful here:
(define-minor-mode electric-indent-local-mode
"Toggle `electric-indent-mode' only in this buffer."
:variable (buffer-local-value 'electric-indent-mode (current-buffer))
Rewriting this to avoid this is slightly cumbersome, it turns out. So
I'm not sure it's worth obsoleting the form, and we just have to live
with the somewhat odd semantics.
