If we are to extend hs-special-modes-alist, I think it's better to add
functions to find/check blocks. Maybe this is the third option
mentioned in the first mail.  For that, I added three functions to
hs-special-modes-alist:

- hs-find-block-beginning-func
- hs-find-next-block-func
- hs-looking-at-block-start-p-func

Attached is a prototype patch to achieve this.
