This means that any post-apply handlers can't make any calls that take
the mutex. Maybe that is fine? On the flip side, maybe we want to
prevent any changes while the notifiers are called.
The other calls could have similar issues. We should make sure we are
consistent.

Both of these should be outside the ifdef. Otherwise, the !OF_OVERLAY
case will not compile.
