As my previous words may be a bit confusing.  Proving a bug in the
shape of a test is super useful, even if the so-said test finishes by
not being committed.

I'll do that, and likely apply the result.  Another part is if this
should be backpatched or not, but I always find these recovery changes
quite stressing to do in stable branches, so for now I'd tend to just
do this change on HEAD, also due to the fact that we don't seem to
have reports about this tiny window being a problem in practice.
