I still think it wrong to change the text according to where it is
displayed. This would appear to call at most for overlays (which can be
window specific and where changing them does not change the underlying
text). So this sort of information probably belongs in the glyph matrix
or whatever it is called.
As far as I know, text properties are also subject to undo treatment.
It just makes me queasy to think about this.

Sounds more like "sane" than "an interesting experiment" to me. But on
the other hand, I have no relevant experience or knowledge whatsoever.
