Yes, what I mean is that in this case we would have to recreate the
structure instead of update it. I do not know how costly it is but
Abdel is confident that it is not a problem.

Why do we need that structure at all? Given that our char_type is
32-bits, and we don't use all 32, we could do something like the
following: the insets themselves could be stored in a hash table,
without storing their positions in that structure. At each position in
the paragraph where an inset appears, instead of just the META_INSET
character, we store an actual key into the hash table. (From the comment
on META_INSET I understand that we don't use any values above 0x20001
--- which means that we have more than enough room for keys to as many
insets as we'd like in a single paragraph...).
We have to make sure that these are not proper Unicode symbols.
Then, there's no need of
keeping the insets structure in sync with the paragraph itself after
every insertion...
This is a very interesting suggestion Dov, I look forward to helping you
in the implementation ;-)
