Okay, I pushed two final (?) improvements: a new optional argument "lock" 
to narrow-to-region that Lars (added in Cc) suggested and which is now 
used to lock the restriction around fontification-functions, and two 
updates to the documentation.

Could you please tell me if it's ready to merge?

Actually there's no need to open a new bug report, as bug#56683 already 
exists.
