I can reproduce some of this in various older Emacs versions, but this
seems to work fine for me in Emacs 28 (and I remember doing some work in
this area some months ago), so I'm going to go ahead and guess that this
has been fixed, and I'm closing this bug report.  If you're still seeing
this issue, please respond to the debbugs address and we'll reopen.
