Why is it necessary ?
What is necessary is for there to be an event that wakes up
read_key_sequence.
The select-window event is bound
to handle-select-window which will do the selection (including changing the
current buffer) so when we get back into read_key_sequence, the current
buffer should have been properly switched already.
If this event does the job, things ought to work. But apparently they
don't work. I can't tell for certain what the problem is, of course,
but the problem is extremely suggestive of a failure for
read_key_sequence to recognize what happened.
