I mentioned above that I find it extremely useful because we have an
awkward mix of 2-space indent and 4-space indent files (and files that
mix the two), and modelines fix that specific problem.

Similarly, Gecko style guidelines mandate 80 char lines, while
SpiderMonkey guidelines mandate 99 char lines.

Perhaps I'm modifying a wider range of files than some people, so this
problem affects me more.  Or is there some other solution to this
problem of inconsistent style guidelines that I'm unaware of?
