Okay, from your explanations, it sounds as if the following
would work: Do some edits with enable-bidi-display nil, then
switch that on to trigger display, then switch it off again,
and continue editing. Not exactly sure I'd like to work like
this, I just want to know whether that would avoid the bugs.

Also, have you considered calling whatever corrresponds to
cntl-L internally instead of abort when you find an inconsistent
situation, or log that inconsistency in some kind of 'dump'?
