In conjunction with bug#43218, completion no longer clobbers all text
properties (but it does clobber the face text property). So it still
requires some wrangling by the caller if the text property was the one
they wanted to have preserved, but the caller can stash that in a
different text property.
This requires that `minibuffer-allow-text-properties' is non-nil.
So I think that basically takes care of the problem described here, and
I'm closing this bug report.
