posn-at-point uses display routines, so it cannot report on invisible
POS, because the display code skips invisible text.  The doc string
kinda hints on that:

  Return nil if POS is not visible in WINDOW.  Otherwise,
  the return value is similar to that returned by ‘event-start’ for
  a mouse click at the upper left corner of the glyph corresponding
  to POS:

You cannot click a mouse on a glyph corresponding to invisible text,
can you?

We could make this more clear in the documentation.  I think this
usually isn't a problem because this function is not called for POS
calculated in some way, as opposed to positions actually displayed, or
nil.
