I by no means use all of Emacs, but haven't run into an issue yet with
my patch.  I use Emacs with t-d-o-e on.

Do you have an example of code that you've seen "needs the current
behavior" at the beginning or end of the buffer.  I'd be happy to
crusade and study this further and root those out.

So far, I've looked at these functions in Emacs to see if they still work.
