Thanks for the feedback!
I had hoped that - like in Perl - there is a [(possibly) undocumented] feature
or a "trick" that lets you extract the start and the end positions (columns)
after a *single* call to match(), using both \zs and \ze.
I would prefer such a solution over having to determine

Sorry, I was too unspecific. I want to use the \z[es] from the last match() to
prevent searching for the same - complicated - expression two times (once with
match() the second time with matchend()...).
matchlist() might come to the rescue, but I expect that having access to these

You should be able to pass an empty string to the searchpos() function to
re-use the last used search pattern. See :hel
Is there any *native* (i.e. not programmed) way to access the column position
