It was soon after I posted this bug report.

I haven't looked at recent changes in this area, so maybe things would
be a bit easier now, tho looking at `scan_for_column` in `master`,
I still see that we re-implement in `check_display_width` (part of) the
code used in `xdisp.c` to handle the display property, so AFAICT the
duplication is still present.
