Yes, but this is what the code (in the shadow code) intends to check.
My complete plan is to have this macro and restore the idea of having
a flag for shadow pages because, as for now, the fact that we can't
distinguish clearly a shadow page should be considered a sort of bug,
given the code assumptions. Or at least a good basis for future bugs.

Thanks,
Gianluca
