If, in order to read text from the mode line for every buffer, we must
force the mode line for every buffer to be redisplayed (along with the
buffer itself), then _preventing_ redisplay from happening in this code
will prevent the code from reading text from the mode line of every
buffer, which was its original goal.
IMHO, briefly displaying every buffer is an unacceptable price to pay to
be able to read the mode line for every buffer.
