First, I don't know why you would feel aggravated by my
question. But I apologize anyway.  I thought we were making
progress.

Anyway, maybe that wasn't clear, but the new mode would
handle lots of files I have here.  It would allow me to design
better working methods for me and my team. I just can't show
you those files. But I hope you can take my word for it.

If you don't accept the "do no harm" criteria, how many
types of files produced by Emacs do you need before it
becomes useful in your criteria?  Is .dir-locals.el + another
one enough?  That's "more than just one".
