In `find-alternate-file', the old buffer is renamed, the new buffer is
created and then the renamed old buffer is killed. so the place is not
saved before re-opening the file. It seems at the moment for a user the
clean way to implement this feature is by using defadvice.

But I think this is a very useful feature to have.
