Yeah, you can do "goto-char" with that and provide the
position the ordinary way (not in the string as in
"goto-char 0"). If you don't want that you can `push'
the arguments in reversed order to
`unread-command-events' and first of all push 13 for
RET. Very high-skill/knowledge and complicated ways to
do basic stuff, for sure. No one said it is supposed
to be easy!
