Indeed. Note that the new behavior happens to be more correct w.r.t its
docstring:
It is inserted into that buffer before its point.
so it promises to move point in the specified buffer. At first
I thought we should fix append-to-buffer to behave as it used to, but
now I'm wondering whether we should fix the uses instead.
