 1. Use a predefined minor mode map. Then a user who does not want the
binding
 can put a new definition by changing this map. Something like that?

 2. Otherwise use some 'vc-bind-obnoxious-keys' variable? 
Both of these would be bad ideas, I think.  We should:

a) make it easy for users to change global bindingd;

b) avoid unnecessary user options to cover up for bad design decisions 
   or ease of implementation.

...
 3. Your ;;;###autoload <stuff here>
 isn't that bad either as it behaves just like vc-hooks.el was dumped
 like it is in FSF Emacs. 
Would that work in the new vc-hooks.el?

...
 a. Only for files where there is version control.
 b. So what? The user should use 'C-c letter' for his bindings. 
Nope.  The user should be able to rebind global bindings.  As someone
said on alt.religion.emacs, global-set-key is global-set-key.
