Magit's section highlighting is performed in post-command-hook, so it
highlights the wrong section in this case based on that value.  Do you
have a solution for this kind of problem?  hl-line-mode has the same
problem btw.

Ok, have tried now with (setq global-disable-point-adjustment t) and it
avoids the problem in my test case, yes.  However it's not what I want
to do in this buffer (or generally in this kind of situation, most of
the time).

Thanks,

Michael.
