Yes, I believe it's correct for all other packages and commands to
follow Eglot's example and not break if the environment or exec-path are
set buffer-locally.

In Eglot's case, this is not a big feat, since it calls make-process in
without ever changing buffers.  For other packages and commands, a bit
of extra care may be necessary (cf. my patch to `compile').
