Thanks.

Hmm... does that mean tramp-sh-handle-file-attributes runs with
*scratch* is its current buffer? It was *scratch* that you were
typing into when this point jumps happened, right? It's strange that
Tramp uses the current buffer for its processing, but Michael should
know.
If tramp-sh-handle-file-attributes is not using *scratch*, then we'll
need to find some other code in the functions run in backtrace that
does.

Wait a minute, why does self-insert-command run in a non-main thread?
Could it be that somehow a non-main thread started receiving and
interpreting your keyboard input? (The "find-file /scp:" thread is
not the main thread, right?)
