This looks fragile and can be disasterous when buffer-undo-list is
large.

Maybe just use with-silent-modifications or some ideas from there (for
example, wrapping modifications inside let-bound (buffer-undo-list t))?
We should not inhibit modification hooks though. Otherwise, it will mess
up with caching code.

Best,
