AFAIK in all circumstances where you want line-move-ignore-invisible to
be non-nil, you'll also want disable-point-adjustment to be nil.
And vice-versa.

You're saying that line-move-to-column would like current-column and
friends should to treat invisible text as if it were visible?
For reference: the pre-21 behavior was to treat all invisible text as if
it weren't there. In Emacs-21, I changed it so that text that's
replaced by an ellipsis is counted as if it were visible: I needed this
to be able to re-indent blocks of code while hidden by outline-minor-mode.
I didn't change it for non-ellipsis invisible text to reduce the
backward compatibility problems.
It turns out that it's also a good behavior in the sense that you can
get the other two behaviors (ignore all invisible text properties and
obey all invisible text properties) in the following way:
(let ((buffer-invisibility-spec nil)) (current-column))
and
(let ((buffer-invisibility-spec t)) (current-column))

Indeed. We also need to improve that docstring.
