I can add that mechanism, but I'm not sure it is worth it. There are a
bunch of variables that other packages could possibly want to modify:
desktop-globals-to-save
desktop-globals-to-clear
desktop-clear-preserve-buffers-regexp
desktop-clear-preserve-buffers
desktop-locals-to-save
desktop-buffers-not-to-save
desktop-files-not-to-save
desktop-modes-not-to-save
desktop-buffer-mode-handlers
desktop-minor-mode-table
and the various hooks. I see no clear pattern about what would other
packages want to modify; *-locals-to-save and *-minor-mode-table are
perhaps the most useful, but other than that everything's game. I
don't see what do we gain by adding functions to manipulate these vars
instead of doing it directly.
