Ah.  I thought that if I set up this syntax-propertize-function thing,
things will happen after buffer modification automatically.  (My –
admittedly limited – tests showed that this was indeed the case.)

I have to say that I'm more and more embarassed to ask somewhat stupid,
RTFM-style questions here.  However, the part of the manual about syntax
parsing is not very verbose.  Should I read the parts about font-lock to
understand better what's going on here?
