I checked in a slightly modified version of the patch that more
obviously "does the same thing" after testing it somewhat.

I am not sure that "the same thing" is correct however: the
description of the `end-of-line' function sounds like field boundaries
could cause problems.  I just have no clue about the ramifications of
"fields" and whether they can occur in longlines buffers.
