I think that one of the problem of folding mode is that it is trated like a
mode by itself, when it really is an orthogonal thing. So, if you enter
latex mode, for example, and the folding mode, you loose some useful
keystrokes, and in the menu just the latex mode functions do appear. 

I think that folding mode should use a set of keystrokes starting with
something different from _Reserved_Key_Prefix, and that its function should
add to the menubar.
