The C-g isn't necessary to reproduce the issue.

It's pretty annoying when using whitespace-mode -- which changes the
text properties all the time when you move around in the buffer (without
modifying the buffer). It's not really that much of an issue elsewhere,
where font lock changes usually only happen when you actually edit the
buffer.
