Reading this discussion, it sounds to me like this is more about post-command-hook than while-no-input.
By the time this code is run, the user's input has been received and processed. The reason why redisplay doesn't happen is the fact that this code is running on post-command-hook.
So maybe the docstring for post-command-hook should point out this detail and recommend that functions added to this hook call sit-for if they're going to do potentially expensive processing.
