Re: [TCLCORE] [TIP 541] New TIP 544.

It does make sense to export Tcl_GetIntForIndex, as per TIP 544.

Thinking ahead to carrying the index-offset reform to Tk, I realize there
is more to do, if it were to be TIPed. For consistency, the plethora of
named index points for various Tk widgets would probably want the same
treatment as "end".
