I'm sure it will be beneficial, but most of the upside will come from 
offering to install packages with corresponding major modes when one 
opens a file with a particular extension.

For the user to type 'M-x eglot', or 'M-x global-company-mode', they'd 
have to be aware of either first, don't they?

And 'M-x package-install', by itself, is not hard.
