And no such thing for comments? Instead of
(nth 3 (save-excursion (syntax-ppss pos)
I'd use something like
(let ((state (save-excursion (syntax-ppss pos))))
(cond
((nth 3 state)
... use (nth 8 state) and parse until end of string)
((nth 4 state)
... use (nth 8 state) and parse until end of comment)))
and thus immediately get type, start and end of the syntactic entity at
pos.

What would be bad about that? Anyway, you could add some variable you'd
set via 'All' or whatever causes pos to move off-screen and have 'None'
inspect that flag to tell whether it should go back. Clearing the active
region would clear that variable too.
