Unless I'm missing something, it's not possible without adding a
separate calculation of where the lines on screen will go.  The
function that redraws the screen keeps its information separately from
the body of ZLE and, although it does remember what it's put where,
there's no mapping between the screen lines and the logical data to
refer to.
