`count-words' should be disabling field-boundary behavior in
`forward-word-strictly' by setting `inhibit-field-text-motion'. Patch
included.

I grepped for other calls to `count-words' that might be making the same
omission, but everything I saw looked like a use case that should
respect field boundaries.
