There are various ways to do things very similar to what posn-set-point
does, so a hook on this function seems rather odd to me: it will only
catch some window selections and some point movements.
IOW I find it difficult to characterize when these hooks will be run
(except with the trivial characterization that they're run when
posn-set-point is run, which is not very meaningful since no command is
documented to use this function).
