I propose to add something generic. For instance, Python mode needs to
know indentation level of blocks. It seems that `syntax-ppss` doesn't
return it at all. And adding everything that might ever be needed by
some XYZ mode seems counter-productive and complicates an already complex
function and its return value.
I would be glad to see this mechanism made more powerful such that it can
serve the needs of a wider range of languages. The challenge is to
design a mechanism that is clean and simple and yet can do the job.
Would you like to work on it?
