`cm-mode` also adds the markup patterns defined by CriticMarkup to
`font-lock-keywords` and provides customisable faces to highlight them. The
customisation group is called `criticmarkup`.

There are ways to deal with this, but since `cm-mode` is a minor mode, it could
interfere with the major mode's font locking mechanism if it did that. Besides,
one is advised not to include newlines inside CriticMarkup tags anyway.
To mitigate this problem, you can use soft wrap (with `visual-line-mode`).
Since each paragraph is then essentially a single line, font lock works even
across multiple (visual) lines.
