I cannot establish whether these changes are safe for Emacs 26.2,
since they are not really trivial.  Perhaps if you told more about
each change, I could make up my mind.

Some of the questions I would like to be able to answer in order to
make the decision:

  . which of the 'require's you want to remove take the lion's share
    of the load time?
  . why was seq-mapcat used originally instead of mapcan, and what is
    the semantics of replacing the former by the latter?
  . why did you switch the order of eval-when-compile in sgml-mode.el?

Thanks.
