Since other pre-Ada 2012 things do seem to confuse the current mode
(such as anonymous access to subprogram parameters), starting from a
well documented grammar with some error rules added to the grammar
seems promising. This might have to be done carefully if what Emacs
currently has would, by default, result in one of those parsers that
cannot handle ''' properly.
Is there some current introduction to Emacs syntax thingies?
Last time I looked it seemed to be a moving target.

Argh!
- "Emacs Ada Support: Now Vendor Locked!"
- GPS version dependence
- cuts alternatives (Emacs' indentation has some nice
adjustable features that GPS does not have, and vice versa)
- cannot change Emacs mode without knowing some other, external
program's sources well, and how to recreate that
- might force running an X server (unless an "indentation
daemon" could be extraced/made from GPS/gnatpretty).
Pretty often, I need to run emacs in a terminal window outside
a graphical environment; imagine a remote server machine,
or some virtual machine that is efficient only when it does
not have to compute pixels.
