We get this (which, if I understand you correctly, is "good") :P

<lawrence>    (save-excursion
<lawrence>      (frob))

The only problem I think there might be would be for multiline
pastes with a lead "^/" ... goes away to check.

Nope, it doesn't appear to break.

Pasted input:
| foo bar baz
| /say foo bar baz
| /bar   fdsjakflj dslkajf kdsl;

Output:
| <lawrence> foo bar baz
| <lawrence> /say foo bar baz
| <lawrence> /bar   fdsjakflj dslkajf kdsl;

In fact, looking closer, I don't think one will ever have a
problem with multiline pastes, since ERC-SEND-CURRENT-LINE calls
ERC-PROCESS-INPUT-LINE with a MULTILINE-P argument.  If
MULTILINE-P is T, then the result of
ERC-EXTRACT-COMMAND-FROM-LINE is ignored, and the lines are sent
"as is".  So, the only things we need to consider are breakage
for single-line input.
