If "turning off the question" means "throw away the undo info", it doesn't
seem like a big risk.  Another alternative between throwing away the info
and not throwing it away is to split those mega-undo-step by arbitrarily
adding some undo-boundaries in them, so that undo-limit can do its job
(which it has always done silently, BTW).
