Looks like one more reason not to make the proposed change the default, but as a variant callers could use, per my comments. And yes, using the 'cursor' property on the overlay string, or perhaps moving the cursor before the overlay string, might solve the problem in this case. (It is hard for me to say without being familiar with this IM and without close study of the proposed patch to use overlays.)
