 Why would you want *any* extents at all in dabbrev inserted text,
though?  I think I'd like to have the extents stripped too...

(I must admit that I've not gotten to the part about extents and text
properties in the lispref yet.  Does stripping the extents from the
string remove them from where they came from too, or just from the
string we grabbed and copied?)

 Maybe we should make another function in subr.el that strips extents
and text properties both?
