Hmm... you are right.  But that sounds like a bug in posn-at-point, I
will look into fixing it soon.

I went with half the line height, thanks.

Thanks for testing, I've now installed the change on the master
branch.  I'm not yet closing the bug, because I want to see what can
be done about removing the tolerance in comparing values of
posn-at-point.
