It would have helped me if you had mentioned this discussion there.
I only became aware of this because Eli cced me.  It is useful for
me because it confirms some speculation of mine.  When I merged the
Magit pull-request I mentioned that I am doing so as a quick fix for
the issue, but that I intend to look at it again at a later time.

That was my guess.  The merged commit just forgoes calling that function
if things aren't as expected.  My plan was (and obviously still is) to
look into instead ensuring that the expected buffer is current, making
it current if necessary.
