I cannot imagine anyone wanting to trigger something when eldef shortens
the prompt! But that could easily be a lack of imagination on my part. :)
I think my problem is that I'm wrong about what after-change-functions
is for. I thought it was supposed to trigger when the buffer changes due
to direct user actions, but the documentation says "after every change",
not "after user-initiated changes" or something like that. Maybe I just
need to re-adjust my expectations of when that hook runs.

Seems so.

I'd be interested to read other opinions, particularly if someone has a
useful example of triggering something to happen when eldef shortens the
prompt (since a single example would increase my powers of imagination!).
