All right - without commenting on any large arachnids (or other creepy-crawlies), further contemplation and testing suggest that this *may* end up breaking too many of your invariants in Scintilla... so I withdraw my request for consideration to relax the multiple-entry restrictions at this time. :)

Sigh. Since what was driving this is trying to keep the assigning of read-only attributes to "magic" comments more-or-less synchronous with the user's actions, I am now examining just *how* much of a Bad Idea(tm) it is to do this in the OCaml lexer itself. ;)

BTW, I am not abandoning the "official caret-legal positions in protected ranges" code using a new indicator style - this still has a purpose, *if* I can achieve a satisfactory use of protected mode.
