No one objected, so I guess this is a GO.
I have one request, though: could you (or someone else) please post
requirements for what these functions should do? That is, of course,
trivial with unidirectional text, but what about reordered text?
Let's say we have buffer text
abcde ABCDE FGHIJ xyz
which will be displayed under Visual Line mode as
abcde JIHGF
EDCBA xyz
Where should beginning/end-of-visual-line put point in each one of
these two screen lines?
(When you answer this question, please think about the possible uses
of these functions: we need to come up with an answer that is useful
in their various use-cases.)
Thanks.
