I think it's simpler that way: `global-eldoc-mode' adds its stuff to the
global hook bindings.  Thus toggling the global mode has an instant
effect on all buffers.  The globalized local eldoc mode would only have
an effect in new buffers or after changing the major mode.

What exactly is this bug report about (this question, or the statement
in the subject, for which you didn't provide a recipe)?

Michael.
