But you're right, the mode line can always be customized, so I'm no= t feeling
too strongly about this.

=E2=80=8BCustomizing mo= de-line-format won't help as the string to be modified is embedded in t= he sub-variable, mode-line-position, which is a standard variable not a cus= tomizable option.=C2=A0 So doesn't that mean there is no way for a non-= programming user to change the line-col display format and have that change= persist across Emacs releases without replicating the whole definition of = mode-line-position?
