Hmm. If I have
12345
ABCDE
and I make `12345' + the newline after the `5' invisible and
intangible, I see
ABCDE
in the buffer. If the blinking cursor stays on the `A', and you press
`C-x =', do you *really* expect to see the properties of character `1'
instead of `A'? This is completely counterintuitive IMHO.

Maybe. I don't know the internal details of Emacs. However, calling
add-text-properties triggers the problem I experience.

In this particular case I don't care where `point' is. I want to get
the correct result of `C-x ='.

This might be handled as a special case.

Of calling add-text-properties as described in my report. I do expect
that C-a moves the blinking cursor to the beginning of the line and
not to the *second* character in the buffer, letter `B'.
