Hi Eli,

We seem to have lost track of this, and it's waiting for your input.  I'd
like this change to make it 27.1.

To summarize, the benchmarks you suggested (paging down the file with
C-v and C-n) all confirmed "no performance hit".  I also tried a couple
of C-f/C-b benchmarks to the same results. 

If you need to gain more confidence from more benchmarks or a refresher
on exactly what this change is about, I'm at your disposal.  If you
think you're OK with the performance aspect, I'll perform the changes to
the docstrings and NEWS that we had agreed to previously.
