Not a cosmetic change, indeed.

I realize that it fixes an annoying misfeature, but it does so by
introducing a significant new feature which requires quite a few code
lines.  For a problem that AFAIU has been with us since time
immemoriam, I'm really uneasy with putting this on emacs-26.  But I'm
fully prepared to hear arguments to the contrary.

Thanks.
