public interface IPositionUpdater
A position updater is responsible for adapting document positions. When
installed on a document, the position updater updates the document's
positions to changes applied to this document. Document updaters can be
selective, i.e. they might only update positions of a certain category.
Position updaters are of primary importance for the definition of the semantics of positions.
Clients may implement this interface or use the standard implementation
