FTR, I think it's way worse now. The function variable has no clear
protocol: it's very odd to state its return type as number of code units
_or_ bytes _or_ code points. A good docstring for such a variable notes
that, for any buffer position, a plugged-in function must return the
same _type_ but may return a different _value_ to match the
unit-counting strategy being used by the LSP server.
I haven't reverted to avoid a commit war, and because I'm a bit weary of
this bug. I leave a patch for consideration and for the record, feel
free to ignore it.
