The quickest way to get this done is to start doing the work with some
mode, say C, first as a separate mode maybe on the features/tree-sitter
branch, then we can figure out later how to incorporate things?  If
there's any interest for this then I can work on that, and hopefully we
can land on something useful soon?  After that we can see how we want to
proceed?

IMO keeping such a mode in the feature-branch could be wise for the ease
of installation.  Unless there's too much toe-stepping.

WDYT?
