I'm sorry, but this just seems totally contrived. Are people actually
supposed to know this? And who's to say there's searching involved?
What if I just want to look at the text properties at point? It
shouldn't matter whether the buffer is narrowed. (If you think it
_should_ matter, then why shouldn't it also matter for `char-after',
etc. It's a consistency problem.)
