Not using the trunk to edit files from the trunk sounds rather
error-prone. Indentation rules etc has changed.

You can still edit the file -- you just get an error message (which you

We could remove the mode cookie, of course, but then we'd have to put
etc/NEWS in auto-mode-alist, which would yield false positives for other
files with that name.
