That buffeting your feeling is as has been stated is a disruption of airflow over the horozontal stab. From what I've been told this can turn into a tail stall in the right situation. Although I've never experienced this personally. I've slipped many a cessna with full flaps and if I feel it start to buffet I usually just ease off a little.
I deffenitly don't think a slip is an "emergency manuver" I grew up around, and learned in, tailwheel and no flap airplanes though and was tought the slip from day one. Heck if one knows what he's doing you can put any airplane in an uncoordinated path to lose a little altitude or airspeed.
