But the problem is that the buffer-local hook will have such idiomatic code:

  (with-current-buffer (window-buffer window)
    ...

where window-buffer will return a wrong buffer.

I don't know.  In this particular feature request I'm going to use debounce,
but for general case I don't see how to optimize it.

Thanks, now the problem is not reproducible.
