You may be right, but the language mode would not have been
done here at Bell Labs (IMHO, ok, but I know the guys involved),
nor would it likely to have been "bought back" if developed outside.

I just did a bunch of programming in Erlang, using sam, and didn't
feel the need for a language mode.  And no, it isn't because I don't
know what such a mode could do ... unfortunately, for various reasons,
my nearly full-time work these days is living inside Microsoft's
Visual Studio, doing C++, with a singing-dancing C++ mode that mostly
just gets in the way.
