This is the reason why my suggestion did not come with a patch ;-)
This said, I don't think it's impossible, but it would require
a reorganization indeed.

I don't understand how this is possible because currently a coding system
should be recognized before mode is chosen:

1. Recognizing Coding Systems
1.1. coding-system-for-read if non-nil
1.2. auto-coding-alist matching a filename
1.3. auto-coding-regexp-alist matching first bytes
1.4. `-*- coding: -*-' tag
1.5. auto-coding-functions (e.g. unicad-universal-charset-detect)
1.6. file-coding-system-alist matching a filename

2. Choosing Modes
2.1. `-*- mode: -*-' tag
2.2. interpreter-mode-alist
2.3. magic-mode-alist
2.4. auto-mode-alist
2.5. magic-fallback-mode-alist

I think that auto-coding-alist should allow mapping not only file-names
but also major modes to coding-systems.  This should hopefully take care
of those issues by mapping image-mode and archive-mode to no-conversion.

AFAICS, it is not reproducible with "emacs -Q" where visited archives
and images with non-standard file extensions are visited in proper modes.

The problem appears with using Unicad (http://code.google.com/p/unicad/).
Basically what is does boils down to the following line:

  (add-to-list 'auto-coding-functions 'unicad-universal-charset-detect)

The rest is just statistical guessing of the coding system based solely
on the content of the file, and in case of archives and images, the
guess is incorrect, and `magic-fallback-mode-alist' fails to match
a mode regexp at the beginning of the buffer.

So the question is whether we should complement entries in
`magic-fallback-mode-alist' with the corresponding entries in
`auto-coding-regexp-alist' with the same regexps (like we complement
entries in `auto-mode-alist' with entries in `auto-coding-alist')?

Or every function in `auto-coding-functions' that determines a coding system
should somehow take care of exceptions in `magic-fallback-mode-alist'?

The same problem exists also for images.  `magic-fallback-mode-alist' contains:

  (image-type-auto-detected-p . image-mode)

but visiting an image file with a non-standard file extension
(i.e. not in `auto-mode-alist') doesn't display it as an image.

The following patch fixes this problem, but it seems duplicating
image regexps from `image-type-header-regexps' is too ugly?

When `archive-mode' is enabled for an archive file with an unknown file
extension, using the rule ("\\(PK00\\)?[P]K\003\004" . archive-mode)
from `magic-fallback-mode-alist', visiting such a file fails with the
args-out-of-range error.

The following patch should fix this bug using the same regexp as in
`magic-fallback-mode-alist' and the same coding system as for archive
file extensions in `auto-coding-alist':
