This is actually what I meant; I was thinking about setting the
variable manually.

I'm contemplating the possibilities, actually.  If we agree that
`TeX-modes' is the best way to control AUCTeX's behavior, fine with me.
We should then document it better, `TeX-modes' is currently somewhat
underrepresented in the manual, IMO.

At any rate, I think we should make a new ELPA release and see what
users say about the change.

@Tassilo: Can you please change the line:

;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "26.1"))

to

;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "27.1"))

in auctex.el on ELPA and make a new release?  TIA.

Best, Arash
