This is nice to see!
Indeed, except for embedding, there is a large overlap with what I
described as buffer lenses.

BTW, judging by this description: "changes percolation now happens
incrementally, so only those parts of the buffer are updated. As a result,
lentic now cope with long files with little noticable delay", the buffers
don't share any data and need to sync with the master [linked] buffer.
Is this the best solution? I have imagined that at the low level there is
an actual data structure that keeps the raw textual data and it could be
directly shared by multiple buffers. I mean, when a buffer is saved to a
file, the text doesn't need to be stripped of properties beforehand, right?
