Yes, that part is tricky and should be solved by a generic primitive
rather than my ad-hoc fix.  I thought that when the buffer is unmodified
at the time I do "this command", doing/undoing "this command" and
setting the modified status to nil should not cause any harm.  Can you
provide a counterexample?
