I think the best way to implement this feature is to add a new hook
`after-create-buffer-hook' containing a function that sets buffer
mode according to `buffer-auto-mode-alist'.  This hook could be called
from `get-buffer-create'.

This hook will also help to remove defadvice for `create-file-buffer'
in uniquify.el when a uniquify renaming function will be appended
after buffer-auto-mode-alist renaming function in this hook.
