    Not always.  For example, when point-left and point-entered are placed
    over an interval that does not cover the line-beginning position, as
    shown:

	| interval  |
     1 2 3 4_5 6 7 8 9
	    ^ point is here

The scenario is not fully specified, so I am not sure what the code
will do, nor can I start to think about whether it is right or wrong.

Could you try making a completely specified scenario, and show
what the code will do?
