Re: momentary-string-display

[Richard Stallman]

momentary-string-display is a kludge, which should be used as little
as possible.  It is used very little, so it has little potential to do
any harm.

I see two uses of momentary-string-display in table.el which perhaps
should be replaced by calls to display-warning.
Takaaki-san, do you think that is a good idea?

It would be clean to make momentary-string-display use overlays
and not change the buffer text at all.  Would you like to try
writing that?  But let's not delay the release for it.
