I don't know what to say, since it sounds like the "appetite comes with eating". We never talked about PT_POS before. Is the plan to make any popular position a struct? Like GPT, for example? What about BEGV and ZV? IOW, I don't understand the goal here. I think I did understand when we were talking about accessing characters by buffer positions, and the bugs related to incorrect usage there, but now it sounds like the plot thickens?
