Something that came up in yesterday's show about org mode was a wish to mix major modes in the same Emacs buffer.
(I suppose that would be multimodal editing, but I can also imagine it called polymodal editing.)
A possible approach to tackle this partially is to copy a section of the buffer into a temporary buffer, edit it there in the appropriate mode, and copy it back.
This is clumsy, of course, and the effort to implement it might be too big, but such a feature would be better than nothing.(Today I again found myself wishing I had mixed modes, and that without org mode.)
