I consider seq.el as "core" already. Actually, I also consider cl-lib as "core". The fact that you have to rite (require <..>) is fairly secondary. I think sooner or later, these libraries will be preloaded (not sure which of the two will get there first, tho). Also, FWIW, I don't see many uses of these cl/seq-position functions in Emacs, so I'm not sure how important they are, really. Stefan
