Agreed. We need two functions:
- font-lock-flush-region (which marks the region for re-fontification).
- font-lock-ensure-region (which makes sure the region is fontified).
The functions we have were designed before lazy/jit lock and were
adjusted in ad-hoc ways when jit/lazy was added.
For font-lock-ensure-region, you should be able to find sample code for
an implementation in various packages such as ps-print.el and
replace.el.
