Hm, unless I messed something up (definitely possible), that shouldn't
happen . For ERC, I typically remove all the lisp/erc/*.elc files after
every change and before rerunning Make, regardless of whether native
comp is enabled (though removing native-lisp/30.0.50-deadbeef/*.eln
isn't usually necessary, AFAICT). Sometimes, though, I also have to
remove lisp/loaddefs.* and others. In case you weren't aware, there are
recipes for regenerating various autoloads and Custom business in
lisp/Makefile, but I usually just delete all stale assets completely.

Unfortunately, insertion-hook members lack a means for detecting message
boundaries unequivocally, although they can obviously keep track of
their own modifications and make assertions accordingly. So I agree that
allowing the caller to specify BEG and END in cases where they're
already known makes sense. For example, if they've already scanned for
the end of the speaker name to accomplish some other task or happen to
know the start of the right stamp, it's worth passing that knowledge
along. But computing a sub-region specially, beforehand, just to call
this function is likely less efficient (not that you were suggesting
that). And, of course, accepting BEG/END parameters make it easier to
protect areas of the exposed buffer from props restoration, if ever
there's a need.

This is news to me, but apparently there's a Git hook that complains
about overlong subject lines. After running git-am(1) to apply your
latest patch, I saw:

  Line longer than 78 characters in commit message
  Commit aborted; please see the file CONTRIBUTE

So I adjusted the message to conform to this requirement. If the
attached changes look all right to you, then I'll install them (or
something similar) in the coming days.

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH 0/3] *** NOT A PATCH ***

. Rename the test.

. Add `object' parameter to `erc--reserve-important-text-props'.

. Subject `erc--reserve-important-text-props' call site to the same guard
  condition as `add-text-properties', so messages that don't include spoilers
  aren't marked as having important props (thus allowing healing logic to
  ignore those messages instead of scan them unnecessarily).
