I think it would be a lot clearer if the text said just what you
said here. Something like this:
When you insert a char by typing it, it inherits....
But Lisp code that inserts text might not inherit...
I'm OK with whatever you decide to do (including nothing). I hope
the text will be made a little clearer, but if not, OK. Thx.
