It would be nice to have a hook variable that got run
just before calling after-find-file in find-file-noselect.

This would allow things that want to get an early crack at the
file's contents (e.g., to uncompress them) to do so before entering
a major mode, which might diddle with the contents.

The specific problem I encountered was that tar-mode tries to parse tar.Z files
before crypt.el can uncompress them.
