Ah, perhaps you missed it, that's actually a separate problem.  See
latter halves of #22 & #25.

As far as I know, the only cases of trouble due to not waiting were
Bug#25521 and Bug#25511.

I would note that the dependency on frame visibility is somewhat
non-obvious in both cases (the dependency in the #25521 case is now
eliminated by changing select-frame-by-name).  So talking about
visibility in etc/PROBLEMS is not necessarily of much use.
