I finally got around to giving the "new" beancount.el major mode a
try.  I am a daily user of org-mode since years, and therefore many of
org-mode keybindings are very, very well trained muscle memory by now.
So much that I am really struggling with beancount-mode as major +
outline-mode as minor.  I have already re-bound a few common things as
suggested, but can't help but wondering how many more things I will
need to keep re-binding before I will feel comfortable again.

So I started thinking the other way.  How to make org-mode to be the
major mode, and beancount a minor mode again?  Once upon a time I had
started toying around writing my own very basic mode, and I dabble in
elisp more and more, so I started looking into beancount.el.

Then I started thinking, there must have been some trade-off, or
reason for making it into a major mode?  Is there some functionality
that can only be gained by major mode status?  Such deep understanding
is certainly beyond my wizard level presently, so I thought better
stop there and just ask before I get in too deep.
