If you leave visual-line-mode off, then type C-p twice from "z", don't
you see point go to the 3rd "*" of the line "**** h4"? And if so,
isn't that what you meant by "the goal column actually seems to be
offset in some way influenced by the line prefix"? Or did I
misunderstand what you consider a problem in the existing behavior?
