How about returning the number of lines added from HText_ExtEditForm,
then the code in mainloop() after the call just increases curdoc.link
to MIN(curdoc.link+added_lines,nlinks-1).  I think that would be an
improvement for what is currently implemented, although it doesn't
help in your quest for a general moving function.

I think I would actually prefer the current page no. not changing as
a result of adding lines with an editor.
