There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we put the setq-local directly inside the definition of snippet-mode (and it doesn't even need a boundp check, AFAICT)?
Also, it would be good for the comment to mention (maybe as a "FIXME") that the core problem is that snippet-mode applies emacs-lisp-mode keywords over the whole buffer, including those parts which are plain text rather than ELisp code.

Add workaround to disable semantic highlighting in snippet mode.
Depending on the theme, the snippet header looks confusing and difficult to read.
This PR overrides the combined capf + semantic PR I submitted yesterday.
