It just reduces the inefficiency.
It makes them plenty efficient enough. Remember, the same issue
arises in Rmail, and it isn't a problem.

Those other features can all be done at the UI-level, where they belong, not
at a low level. At the very least, it's all done in elisp, without any need
to fiddle with C code.
I don't think that is true. Changes in set-buffer-file-name and rename-buffer
would have to be done at the C level. And I expect we would find other
low-level facilities that would need such changing.
With my approach, we can be sure that only the operating of writing a file
needs changing.
