Above patch is a partial implementation; only works on GTK (sorry I don't have windows or OSX). I named the methods curpos/curpos= since shoes seems to like short method names.

PS I don't know GTK, so forgive me if this code is crap, but it seems to work. Tested on ubuntu gutsy with shoes r429.

I'm still trying to plan out how I want this to work. (Since I need to do similar things for selecting text.)
