After sending previous mail, realized that maybe it is consistent with
emacs 26.0 or similar version before the bug which I've never tested,
where change was made to behave exactly like that, but then this bug
changed it again.

If so, this change will be consistent with that, and I'm definitely
wrong about this behavior being only introduced here.

Which would explain my misunderstanding of how this fix works, and if
that's the case, please disregard that previous message, sorry.
