The overhead is only visible with very short lines, and is negligible
even then.

It always makes sense.  Searching for newlines is a very frequent
operation in Emacs, not only in the display engine.

It doesn't hurt there, AFAICS.  And we can always turn it off in the
mode function, if we find later that some modes don't like it.
