Re: timers and match-data

[Luc Teirlinck]

>From my prior message:
   
   1.  Every function that waits for input or otherwise allows for timers
       to run should save and restore the match data.

This is probably not unreasonable, as every function that asks a
minibuffer question already needs to store the match data for other
reasons anyway: the user could mess it up in tons of ways.

Sincerely,

Luc.
