I don't know why, but I never received the email from Stephen in my
inbox (Robert's I have). I replied via "reply via e-mail to" button on
the tracker, but my reply was filed into a seperate thread [1]. I
wonder how not to make that happen again...
But, first of all, sorry, I think I have miscommunicated my general
intent in the OP. What I meant to say is that in the end I will want
the two buffers behave as if they were two regions of the same master
buffer (implying, for instance, the possibility of point seamlessly
jumping across their borders), and I thought that ommiting the
interactivity part and hacking up the renderer would be a good start.
That, admittedly, wasn't very far-sighted of me. And now I am
beginning to embrace the inevitability of having to extend upon the
gap buffer.
