Thanks, that did not occur to me. I tried to advice since a while since
it makes debugging difficult.

In any case, maybe because I have not used it for a while, my attempts
failed:

(defadvice set-property (before removeproperties activate)
  "Remove all text properties before setting the property"
  (let ((inhibit-read-only t))
    (set-text-properties (point-min) (point-max) nil)))


(defadvice set-property (after removeproperties activate)
  "Remove all text properties before setting the property"
  (let ((inhibit-read-only t))
    (set-text-properties (point-min) (point-max) nil)))

None of them worked

Any ideas?
thanks
