Could you elaborate a bit here? I can't quite follow.
Anyway: where the actual complaints not more or less like "I want to use
the stock tex/latex modes but also with cdlatex which requires the
auctex package which then hijacks my editing"? If that was the case,
then maybe the only thing to be done was to make the "hijacking"
explicit.
I think that wouldn't be a bad idea anyway (except for compatibility
reasons) because nowadays we all agree that merely installing and
loading a package should not have side-effects.
