Does it bother anyone that, with narrowing, line numbers according to
linum and differ from line numbers according to `goto-line'?  (goto-line
widens before counting, linum doesn't.)  Is changing this behavior a
possibility?  Perhaps it's been around too long to change it now, but
what about adding a new goto-line variant?
