Yes, and:

1. Different users have different use cases and different mental
   models.

2. The same user has different mental models, depending on the
   current context.

3. Code too, not just users, needs to be able to detect buffer
   changes.

4. There are different kinds of buffer changes.  It would be
   good to have ways to detect these as such.
