Using :w as shortcut in insert mode leaves buffer with unsaved marker

[fintara]

Summary

The bufferline shows a [+] marker next to the files that have unsaved changes. I have a shortcut that saves the file. However, even though the file was indeed saved, the marker remains.

Moreover, if my shortcut is C-s = ["normal_mode", ":write"], then there are rare cases when the marker disappears. If I do the sequence ["normal_mode", ":write"] manually, then it all works fine 100% of the time. It seems that some race occurs when it's used as a shortcut. This may be a separate issue though.

Reproduction Steps

# config.yaml
[editor]
bufferline = "always"

[keys.insert]
C-s = ":write"

1. Open a file
2. Make a change - the file has [+] in the buffer line and buffer picker
3. Press Ctrl+s on the keyboard
   • <file> written in the status text below
   • the file is indeed written

What I expect to happen:

• the [+] marker disappears

What happens:

• the [+] marker remains after multiple Ctrl+s presses
