I disagree.  I think Dani is right: the buffer text is changed (at
least twice), which turns on the modified flag.  This situation is
equivalent to inserting a character and then deleting it: the buffer
stays modified, although its text is identical to the original one.

Objection for the following reason:
- It's a human who types in and deletes a charter.
- fill-paragraph is not a human, but a routine.

We obviously disagree.

I don't consider the previous argument for disagreement valid for the mentioned reasons.
