I noticed that neither font-lock's `save-buffer-state' nor jit-lock's
`with-buffer-prepared-for-jit-lock' bind `inhibit-field-text-motion'.
Yet both, font-lock and jit-lock, use `line-beginning-position'.
Just a casual, probably paranoid observation. I don't use fields.

I don't think it's a problem. The use of line-beginning-position in that
code is only a heuristic. It may lead to surprising results in some cases,
but nothing terrible (and it may also be a feature sometimes).
Maybe we should rethink it after Emacs-22, but for now it's OK.
