⛔ Warning (emacs): Test #1:: Everything visible.
⛔ Warning (emacs): Moved point after first ’word’
⛔ Warning (emacs): 1:: current-column = 4

Test #1 is expected - everything is visible, we are indeed at column 4.

⛔ Warning (emacs): Test #2:: ’word’ is inside folded heading (hidden using 
overlays).
⛔ Warning (emacs): Moved point after first ’word’
⛔ Warning (emacs): 1:: current-column = 4

Test #2 is unexpected - we are inside invisible region, but
current-column reports as if everything were visible.

⛔ Warning (emacs): Test #3:: ’word’ is hidden applying ’invisible text property 
to heading body.
⛔ Warning (emacs): Moved point after first ’word’
⛔ Warning (emacs): 1:: current-column = 0

Test #3 follows your previous explanation that current-column ignores
invisible text.
