Answer; NOTHING! I want all the facilities of Emacs Lisp Mode whilst editing a .dir-locals.el, not to have some overlord determine for me what I don't really want.
It's a very lazy reply that can be tailored to almost any situation when you don't want to see something changed.

No, we don't want all the Emacs Lisp Mode facilities. We only want some of them, and others, we want at least slightly modified.
