Right.  You basically propose an opt-out of a new feature (which *could*
break work flows), I propose an opt-in.  IMO the opt-out would have the
disadvantage that all the major modes on *ELPA or elsewhere would not be
covered.

If we go for the opt-out, probably the NEWS entry for command
`prog-fill-reindent-defun' should be updated to mention that M-q could
be rebound to `fill-paragraph' should the new command not have the
desired effect?  Or does that go without saying?
