The extent is start-open because I need text that is inserted at
the start point to push the start point forward along with the
text.  That is, I don't want newly inserted text to leak into the
extent.

If you put the cursor at the start of a MIME attachment button
and press RET, it no longer displays the attachment.  This is
because the extent keymap is not searched due to the extent being
start-open.
