Subject: 24.1; thing-at-point list of possible symbols
Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2012 09:40:05 -0500

Not a bug, just a suggestion to add `number' to the list of symbols so
it's readily know to coders that number-at-point is available.

I don't think he meant quite what you installed, since
(thing-at-point 'number) doesn't work AFAICS.
I think he mean "the function number-at-point also exists".

Cf evalling

(thing-at-point 'number)4 
(number-at-point)4

The former returns nil, the latter `4'.

Thanks for spotting this.  This is just an omission in thingatpt.el, I
think.  I added `number-at-point' as value of the `thing-at-point'
property for `number'.
