But I must say I don't understand the comment. The comment seems to say that C-g within the sit-for be "(re-)read" differently than if it had been typed at some other time. Is that really what your change is about? If so, that sounds wrong (the sit-for is only a display artifact and should ideally in no way influence Emacs's behavior). Or is it that without your change Emacs does behave differently within the sit-for than outside of it and your change tries to bring the two behaviors a bit closer to each other?
