It seems like you are changing the behavior incompatibly, so why keep 
the name?  IIRC the original intention for image-mode-maybe was to use a 
non-image mode from auto-mode-alist if it existed, otherwise use 
image-mode. It originated when we were detecting images with 
magic-mode-alist, which was higher priority than auto-mode-alist.
