Hello!
I've implemented some things mentioned in the thread
"Changes to avoid (inappropriate) font-locking during hexl-find-file".
hexl-mode now behaves as I like it. You can avoid unneccessary
font-locking, revert-buffer works (without unnecc. prompting),
font-lock is switched off when entering hexl-mode and restored by
hexl-mode-exit. :-)
I would appreciate feedback, whether this is also how /you/ would like
hexl-mode to behave, or if I missed something and this changes could
break existing code.
I think these are both good changes. I'm not sure that they really
need to be customizable though. In my opinion the "new" behaviors are
the correct ones and there's not much reason to allow the user to
revert to the old behavior (which was basically just buggy).
I will test your modifications and get back to you with further
feedback.
