But the redundancy is rather problematic, not to mention the fact that
the semantics is unclear (e.g. how does it interact with derived modes?
How does it interact with explicit calls in the mode hook? ...).

Maybe we should provide something like M-x customize-minor-mode-states RET
which would collect the presence/absence of `foo-mode' or `(lambda ()
(foo-mode N))' in all the hooks and let the user add/remove them from
those hooks.
