IIUC they're never displayed, right? So, `font-lock-ensure` does sound
like "the right tool". Could you give a short explanation for why you
don't use `font-lock-ensure`?

Sounds like a bug we should fix.

FWIW, I do think it would be good to remove the rule that font-lock is
never enabled in temp buffers.
