[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Often when particular lines are hidden, one  wants to count only visible
lines.  count-lines presently cannot do this.  XEmacs has for a long-time
had count-lines take an optional 3rd parameter flag which if non-nil,
ignores invisible lines in the line count.  This would be very helpful
whenever selective-display is in use.
