The implications are not obvious. One good thing about emitting the
"saving" message early is that if any of the intermediate steps take a
long time, at least the user is informed about what Emacs is working on.
Postphoning the "saving" message eliminates that benefit, for the very
minor benefit of handling a corner case (a custom write-file-functions
entry) a tiny bit better.
