Unless I misunderstand, they will evaporate only when the underlying
buffer content gets deleted to prepare the buffer for insertion of new
contents.
As I understand it, each overlay covers one field,
and if the field becomes empty, the overlay will evaporate.
The old overlays/buttons are then completely useless to
keep around.
Is that really true? If the user adds more text in the field, isn't
the overlay supposed to cover that new text?
