Oh yeah, that's true...  Except for the problem with the text
properties.  :-)

I think I'd want the "buffer changed" indicator to reflect the state
immediately after doing an edit, though.  It's been a long-standing
annoyance that Emacs claims that the buffer is changed when it "kinda
isn't" (i.e., insert "a" and then delete it).  I want to see that
immediately in the mode line.
