I know what you mean but the present case is different.  When someone
uses narrowing within the atomic change group and we really want to undo
the changes (we still can decide that we won't fix the bug ;-)) we have
to widen the buffer.  If the buffer was narrowed _before_ entering the
atomic change group, it would be incorrect not to restore that.  Or am I
missing something?
