Given that whatever we do will require a new source package in the
archive, maybe it would be a good time to consider alternative folding
addons?  Jaalto's project of course wins for backwards-compatibility ;-)

Summary of options: http://wikemacs.org/wiki/Folding
Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/746cd0/which_code_folding_package_do_you_use/

Hideshow minor mode  (built-in, M-x hs-minor-mode)
https://github.com/gregsexton/origami.el  (allegedly slow for large files)
https://github.com/mrkkrp/vimish-fold  (not featureful?)

Cheers,
Nicholas
