(save-excursion
(beginning-of-visual-line)
(point))
The presence of such functions may reinforce the impression that they could be used as "beg" and "end" parameters to any other function that will process the text between "beg" and "end", in order to make it operate on the visual line.
This works for L2R or even R2L text, but as this thread has made clear, not in the bidirectional case.
So one would want a warning in their DOC strings, if those functions are needed.
