Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment: Note that changing the current behavior is a breaking change. For example someone can use `pattern.findall(text, curpos-50, curpos+50)` to search in the range ±50 characters from the current position. If negative positions change meaning, this will break a code for curpos < 50.
