Still fighting the electric-indent fight I see.

Purely as a data point, from the Emacs manual:

   The least specialized major mode is called "Fundamental mode".  This
   mode has no mode-specific redefinitions or variable settings, so that
   each Emacs command behaves in its most general manner, and each user
   option variable is in its default state.

It would therefore be against the spirit of fundamental mode to
introduce any mode-specific behaviour for it.
